Vildra Bridgette Shannon

On February 5, 2025, Vildra Bridgette Shannon heard the voice of the Master’s call and transitioned from her earthly presence to her Heavenly home.

Vildra, affectionately known as Bridgette, was born October 22, 1963, to Rayjean Harris Shannon in Macon, Georgia.  She attended the Bibb County Public Schools system and was a dedicated former employee of Finchers Barbecue, where she retired.
