Smith and George T. Beckworth. Shanda grew up in Venice, FL and enjoyed the beach, swimming, and fishing. Outdoors was her favorite place to be.

Shanda is survived by her husband, Michael Swafford; children, Aubree Thompson, Kylee Thompson, DJ Thompson, Camisha Thompson, and Weston Thompson; grandson D. Ryker Bernhardt; mother, Mary Smith; step-father, Lou Smith; she was preceded in death by her grandmother, Joyce Hansen.
