Shannon Sue Murphy, a beautiful, adventurous soul, transitioned from this life on September 22, 2026, in Omaha, Nebraska, at the age of 67. Born on June 8, 1959, in Elgin, IL. Shannon lived with the heart of a true wanderer, finding deep harmony in nature, the open road, and the grounding energy of her beloved crystals.
Music was a cornerstone of Shannon's life. She was a dedicated fan of metal music and deeply valued the close-knit community, shared energy, and lasting friendships she found at music festivals. Shannon lived authentically and embraced every earthly experience to its absolute fullest.
Her vibrant light shines on through her family. She is survived by her son, Morgan Von (Piper) Gottfried; her cherished grandson, Arlo Von Gottfried; and a vast constellation of nieces, nephews, cousins, and lifelong friends who shared in her journey.
A Celebration of Life to honor Shannon's enduring spirit will take place on Saturday, October 10, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Engine House Cafe (6028 Havelock Ave, Lincoln, NE 68507). In honoring her memory, contributions may be directed to the family.
