Shanna McDonnell obituary
Shanna Jillian McDonnell, 18 of Corinth, Miss., formerly of Lake City, Minn., died Tuesday, May 30, 2023 at her home surrounded by her parents and the family pets, Max and Macey. She was born July 20, 2004, in Lake City, to Jeremy and Melissa (Kohrs) McDonnell. She attended school in Lake City at Bluff View Elementary through the 5th grade and then went to school online at MN Connections Academy, where she worked hard enough to graduate a year and a half ahead of schedule. She and her family moved to Mississippi last year. Shanna loved to hang out with her brothers playing games via Facebook messenger, snuggle with her cat, Macey, do all sorts of crafts, work on puzzles, listen to music and sing – but most of all she simply loved to love.

She was preceded in death by two siblings, an aunt, her maternal grandfather, Bill Kohrs; and paternal grandfather, Danny McDonnell.
