Shannon Dondle
Born 7/3/1957, Betty Jean Dondle was a fierce, loving presence in the lives of all who knew her. As a determined and strong-willed single mother, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders with grace and resolve, raising her sons with a deep sense of identity, work ethic, and duty that reflected her own inner strength.
As the middle child of five, she was raised in a tight family where expectations ran high and blood ran deep. When times were hard, her bond with her God was unshakable, marked by shared joy, endurance through trials, and a connection that never wavered.
Her love wasn’t soft—it was powerful. She gave of herself fully and fiercely, touching many hearts through her daily work with a kindness that was honest, not performative. Those who knew her felt it in the way she listened, stood her ground, and lifted others with the same hands she used to hold her family together.
Her legacy lives in the sons she raised, the family she cherished, and the countless lives she impacted simply by learning and growing into being herself fully and unapologetically.
She will be deeply missed, but never forgotten and her spirit will forever live on.
