Shawn Kendrick, beloved wife, mother, grandmother and community member, passed away in September. Shortly after graduating Colby College, Shawn met her husband David, a graphic designer, in Providence. They married and moved to Rehoboth to raise their family. Shawn was a professional copy editor who was devoted to many non-profit organizations. She ran the Rehoboth Contra Dance for nearly 40 years and was one of the founding members of the Arts in the Village Concert Series, both held at Goff Hall.
Shawn is remembered for her kind, generous spirit, her gardening, sewing and cooking, and her incredible loving smile. She was preceded by her brother Keir and is survived by her husband David; daughters Celia, Anna and Eva; granddaughter Naomi; sons-in-law Frank and Christopher; sisters Sandy, Jamie, and Sydney, many nieces, nephews and extended friends and family.
A Celebration of Life for Shawn will be held next May.
