Shauna was the loveliest, kindest girl and always helped anyone that needed it at Froebel. Her life was cut far too short and for that, I’m heartbroken for her husband and family. Thinking of them all at this awful time.
I’m so very sorry for your loss. I went to college with Shauna in Froebel, and I have such lovely memories of her. She was always so gentle and caring, and she had so much time for everyone. She had a warmth about her and was genuinely kind to everyone she met. I will always remember her wonderful smile and gentle nature.
She was such a lovely person. I am sending so much love and strength at this incredibly difficult time. Suaimhneas síoraí dá hanam.
I am so deeply saddened to learn of Shauna’s passing. We were students together in Maynooth and I will always remember what a beautiful person she was, inside and out.
Shauna was always so kind and caring, so good-humoured, friendly and warm, a wonderful teacher and friend. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the Hennigan/Hession families at this tragic time, there are no words for such a loss.
May she rest in peace
