    Dear Loved Ones of Shannon Kay,I was most deeply grieved by your loss; your loss has also been our loss.  Shannon was a "breath of fresh air." I had only known her a short while, but truly enjoyed the "ray of sunshine" she had always provided to both faculty and students at Union Star R-II. From the moment I learned of your loss, you all have been in my prayers.  May God continue to comfort and support you through this time of grief, through the love and support of the many who were touched by her smiles and kindness to all.With Deepest Sympathy,Theresa Jackson/Union Star R-II
