To Support Causes That Embody What It Means to “Live Like Sancy”
Sancy Jo Shaw brought her passion for life “beyond four walls” to everyone she met, wrapped in a package of love that made each one feel special. The Sancy Shaw Memorial Fund has been established to continue that impact, reaching people for positive change.
As a wife and mother, Sancy lived life to the fullest, with her husband Brett and four children, Wyatt, Mason, Jaxon and beautiful little girl, Charlee. Sancy’s Christian faith was a cornerstone of her life and she was a devoted follower of Jesus. She wore many hats: avid runner, fly fisher, skier, snowboarder, soccer player, and lover of all things outdoors. Sancy really found her calling as a Science and English Language Arts teacher at North Routt Community Charter School.
Sancy had a profound impact on those she came in contact with. Whether a lifelong friend or one-time acquaintance, your life was forever changed by her infectious spirit. Tragically on Christmas Eve, 2018, Sancy and Charlee were hit by a drunk driver on Interstate 70 west of Denver. Charlee was airlifted to Children’s Hospital, Colorado, but Sancy did not survive.
