Every year on June
21, we, the comrades of Unit 1012, will remember Shannon
McNamara on her birthday. We remember how you live and not how you die.
We will endorse a National Organization, Girls Fight Back that was inspired by
Shannon’s life and also her website, in order to remember how she lived and not
died.
June 21, 1979 – Forever
Every person is entitled to
a Legacy. How will you be remembered? Shannon McNamara’s legacy is rich with
diverse fulfillment. Shannon played the role of daughter, friend, sister,
accomplished athlete, scholar, and ultimately hero in her lifetime. She is not
easily forgotten and will always be remembered. This website, dedicated to her
memory is a sanctuary for all that knew her, loved her, and has been impacted
by her. A place where anyone can go to re-connect with their memories or learn
about the life she lead, who she was, and how this loss has touched the lives
of others. Initially, it was created in 2001 and as each day passes and her
legacy grows so to will this website. I hope that the efforts of many will
allow others to enjoy this remarkable person. I urge anyone who visits this
site to make a contribution in some sort of way. Anything that comes from the
heart will do. Each addition will continue to build on and act as a testament
to the eternal legacy of Shannon McNamara.
Thank You,
The Fight Back for ShanMac Team
