We are sad to announce that, on September 26, 2023, at the age of 80, Terrie Eileen Shannon of Duluth, Minnesota passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
She was predeceased by: her parents, Carl and Mary; and her sister Rosa Lea Stevens (Joe Sperry).

She also spent those years helping others, first, sewing hundreds of cloth bags for people to use instead of plastic at the grocery store, then, sewing thousands of masks which she distributed to hospitals, friends, and school children during the COVID epidemic, and finally working to resettle Afghan refugees.
