Our Golden Girl

Shannon Marie Martin Hyle. She was and always will be Our Golden Girl. She walked the world in beauty, talent, and love. She was loving to and loved by her family and friends, compassionate for people and animals, and determined to excel (and did) whether it was 4-H exhibits, raising rabbits, being sister, daughter, niece, wife, mother, aunt, cousin or co-worker. She eagerly learned new skills at her job, and exuberantly embarked on a career as Stampin' Up demonstrator and distributor. She enriched the lives of all of us beyond compare, and our lives will not be the same without her. We do not know why this was her time. Our comfort lies in knowing that when it is our time, she will be waiting to give us that wonderful all-encompassing hug she always gave us.
