By submitted reports
Evelyn Shannon, a resident of Cross Timbers Rehab& Healthcare in Flower Mound, recently celebrated her 100 the birthday. She was surrounded by family and friends and staff members but most importantly her lifelong friend Edna Merrill who happens to be 100 as well.
Mayor Jody Smith was on hand to help with the celebration.
Shannon attributes her longevity to her life spent in service to others. She was born to JR and Ida Mae Papal in Crawford, Texas.
She is still active in her church, Bible study and food bank ministry. She is currently working on a lifelong dream of providing Bibles to anyone in the world who wish to have one.
Those who know her say Shannon is a joy and an inspiration to all who know her and that it’s been a privilege to all the staff at Cross Timbers to assist her in her recovery.
Flowers on the Mound presented her with a bouquet of roses, Heart to Heart Hospice & Crickle’s and Company provided delicious cakes for all to enjoy.
