Shannon B. Moore, age 45, our beloved daughter and sister, passed away on January 6, 2016, in Seattle Washington with family and friends holding her hands. Shannon had fought a courageous battle with cancer, keeping an upbeat and positive attitude.
Shannon attended Capital High School and the University of Montana. She moved to Seattle around 2003 to work with a friend on a painting contract. Soon after, she started Expect Moore Painting Co. with the moto: ‘Not Your Average Painter’. She was given the opportunity to manage a large apartment building and added more buildings as the years progressed. She was asked to join the Northwest Commercial Real Estate Inv. Corp in 2014 as Director of Management. Shannon truly loved her job and respected the people she worked with.
The Seattle area became her home with all the wonderful things it has to offer: good food, long walks and boating with friends. Coming home to Montana and Helena at Christmas was so very important and visiting with family from Conrad, MT were equally special to Shannon.
Shannon is survived by her mother, Kathy (Moore) Fuson; sister, Georgia (Dana) Barnicoat of Helena; grandmother, Betty Fuson of Conrad AND many loving aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Shannon was preceded in death by her father, Richard F. Moore; maternal grandfather, John Fuson of Conrad; uncle, Gary Fuson; grandparents, Harold and Ann (Moore) Nitzel; uncle, Robert Moore of Conrad; and cousin, DelRoy Moore.
A celebration of Shannon’s life will take place, today, Saturday, January 23, 2016 at Anderson Stevenson Wilke Funeral Home, 3750 N. Montana Ave. A reception will follow the celebration of her life in the social hall at the funeral home.

Dear dear Shannon’s Parents and Family, I am so so sorry!
I cannot begin to imagine the grief you are going through.
Shannon was the girlfriend, of my little brother, Felix, who died many years ago. I love her like a sister. I am sorry i did not keep in touch, for the last few years…
I am so so sorry you lost her so young!!!!!!!!!!
I am shocked! Surprised, and so so saddened!
All my love and best wishes go out to you tonight, and these days with out her amazing presence in your life! She was/is so beautiful, so loving, so calm, so amazing!
I wish i could be there at her funeral, and hold you all so close! And talk about her! Tell the stories!
The last time i saw her was so long ago, i feel guilty, it was at my other brother John’s wedding to my sweet Sherrie Reed. They had a chair with a memorial to our dead brother, Felix. And on another chair and a memorial to a good friend of our family. I saw that and i could not stop crying! All these emotions weddings bring up! And your sweet Shannon, just held me and calmed me down and made me feel better!
I love her so much! You raised such a beautiful daughter! I love her so much! I am so so sorry you lost her! So young!!!!!!! It’s not fair! I wish i could hold you and tell you how much she meant to me!
All my love always, peace and love from lea

This is so sad. I haven’t seen Shannon since high school. She was a very sweet person, and she was my lab partner in Biology. I did have a major crush on her:) My thoughts are with your family. I wish I could be there today, but a prior engagement has me out of town. God Bless

I knew Shannon from high school but haven’t seen her since. What I do remember is that she was always smiling and happy.
My thoughts are with you all.

Kathy,
I have been looking for Shannon for such a long time. I had given up before Thanksgiving, but thought I would try one more time. I am so sad and can not believe she is gone. She is one friend who never let me down. I would love to reconnect with you whenever you are ready.
Hugs and prayers,
Randi (Nicolay) Bartusik

Although I didn’t know Shannon personally, she was my ex’s girlfriend for 10 years. Even after they broke up, they stayed friends. I’m sure she was a Wonderful person & I pray you find comforting of your broken hearts. Too soon~what a Great Loss! She’s your Guardian Angel in Heaven now.

I’m saddened to just now find out about Shannon this evening. I hadn’t seen her since high school, but this is not uncommon when people go there separate ways. She was in my math class, and, being the class clown, shared many one-liners with her. She sat in front of me. I remember Shannon as being a very humble spirit, and was quick to make anyone whom she crossed, feel at ease. Tragically, so many of our friends have passed way before our time. I’m very sorry. I dont do any social media of any sort, which is by choice. She surely will be missed. I’m deeply saddened. Since losing my brother, and sister, I have been a recluse. Now I wish I hadn’t. As seems to be a common theme in these circumstances, I wish I had done more. Because life is short, I’m going to start reaching out to old friends. I’m deeply sorry……
