Annie Jean Shannon, 57, wife of William Shannon, entered into eternal rest on Monday, November 28, 2016 at her home in Pinewood, South Carolina. Born in Jersey City, New Jersey on December 14, 1958, she was a daughter of the late Mary Bullard Jackson and Willie Frank Jackson. Annie was a graduate of Lincoln High School, Jersey City, New Jersey and worked as a tax processor at First Chicago Trust in Jersey City. She was united in holy matrimony to her devoted husband, William for 17 years. The couple relocated from New Jersey to Pinewood, South Carolina in 2004.
