Shanna Dionne (Holland) Benedict

 October 4, 1978 ~ January 31, 2008

Shanna Dionne Benedict, 29, has passed from this life into her Lord and Savior’s loving embrace. She was born to Jerry and Georgia Holland on October 4, 1978, in Dallas.

She was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister and friend. All of us who knew her have traded a piece of our hearts for treasured memories of the joy that she brought to our lives. Shanna was known for her incredible fight for life and love of people, all of whom she was a tremendous encouragement to amidst countless medical battles with seemingly hopeless odds.

Shanna’s fight ended peacefully Thursday evening, January 31, 2008, as she slept in the home where she was building her life and dreams in Gainesville, Texas.

She is survived by her husband, John Benedict; son, Tré; parents, Jerry and Georgia Holland; sister and brother-in-law, Christy and David Stout; nieces, Lauren and Brooklyn Stout; brother, Chad Holland; and many other close family members and friends.

Her life was celebrated at The Gathering Christian Church, Valley View, Texas, at 10:30 a.m., Monday, February 4, followed by her burial at Jackson Cemetery, Krum, Texas.
