"Be alert to give service.  What counts most in life is what we do for others." - Anonymous

As a young boy, Shannon realized his true passion for funeral service and caring for others. That burning passion led him to open the doors of The Serenity Mortuary, Inc., where his desire is to make the inevitable a pleasant experience for families during their hour of bereavement.  Shannon is a graduate of Colleton County High School located in Walterboro, SC. He then went on to attend Gupton-Jones College of Funeral Service in Decatur, GA. where he graduated with a degree in Mortuary Science.  Shannon's passion to serve the community also led him to the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy. Upon completion of the Academy, he obtained a certificate in Law Enforcement. Shannon began his career in law enforcement with the Mount Pleasant Police Department as a police officer. He then ventured on to  become a Deputy Sheriff with the Charleston County Sheriff's Office. Shannon served the citizens of Charleston County diligently during his tenure.
