Las Vegas is where she resided until her death. Throughout Shanda's career, she went on to work at various companies, as a Trainer and Customer Care Representative. She was later offered a position at Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, where she worked until her demise. Anyone who knew Shanda, knows she had a very special way of dealing with people. She was definitely someone who spoke her mind and when she realized she was wrong, not when you told her, her favorite saying was "Oop, I got my nerve", then she would crack up laughing and as far as she was concerned, everything was good! Shanda had a special love for her niece, nephews, tennis shoes and Social Media. This is how she stayed in contact with many of our family members and friends. She would send us funny memes and content on a daily basis, just so we could share in the laughter and foolishness. The memories that we have of Shanda, will last us a lifetime. She was definitely one of a kind and if you made her mad, she would definitely let know "you will get yo back dirty!"
