Shannon Leigh Wisdom

Shannon Leigh Wisdom (57) ascended into the arms of Jesus, her Lord and Savior on Sunday, February 8, 2026, in Orlando, Florida. Shannon was born in Titusville, Florida on December 30, 1968. Her family moved to Geneva where she grew up and called home for the majority of her lifetime.

Shannon was the daughter of Avery “Butch” Wisdom and Sandy (King) Wisdom, the big sister to Stacey Wisdom Fulks and Stephanie “Peanut” Wisdom and the Granddaughter to Avery E. Wisdom and Renee “Gunny” (Malifaud) Wisdom. All predeceased her and welcomed her home in glory!

Shannon is survived by her husband, Steven “Steve” Smith, her son Anthony “Ant” McGolrick and her grandchildren Bentley, Levi and Brianne. Brother-in-law Matt Fulks her niece Taylor and nephews Nick and Noah. Uncles Johnny Wisdom (Jan), Gilbert Wisdom (predeceased) and her many cousins. She is also survived and loved by many extended family members that God blessed her with including her Stepson Marshall Smith (Kaitlin) and their two sons Brody and Sutton Steven, her mother-in-law, Shane Connelly and sister in laws Susan and “Bear’ and was predeceased by her father-in-law Allen E. Smith.

“Shannon knew firsthand as did her father that, “Family isn’t always about blood. It’s the people in your life who want you in theirs, the ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who would do anything to make you smile and who love you no matter what”. Her husband Steve who loved her unconditionally, Londa Duncan who founded her Faith and helped her find God’s grounding in her life and Michael McGolrick both friend and family for a lifetime held a special place in her heart.

Shannon loved God, animals and nature. Her favorite pastime was collecting nature’s treasures’ placing them in her prayer garden and nurturing them as they thrived. She loved her dog “Nova” unconditionally and they were inseparable to the end. Her love for animals gave her quiet moments of peace that she treasured. She enjoyed spending time with her people, pets and plants and will be remembered and missed by all that truly knew her.
