Some people are on this earth for a short time. Their departure reminds us that they are watching over us. On September 20 ^th , 2022, Shawn Marie Lamb rejoined her heavenly family and friends.

Shawn Marie LeBeau was born to Jeffrey LeBeau and Anne Valandra in Mobridge, SD on September 12 ^th , 1967. She found her voice at an early age, and such began her art of telling stories, singing and making people laugh. Shawn took on one of her favorite and most cherished roles of being a big sister after the birth of her three siblings (Michelle, Shane and Joshua).

Shawn attended school in Standing Rock until her graduation. She attended Black Hills State University until she met the love of her life, Delbert "Gumbo" Lamb. They married in February 1987 and they went on to have two children, Delbert and Kristopher. Shawn's greatest loves were her children and family – she would do anything at the drop of a hat for them. Shawn and Gumbo always worked hard and tirelessly to provide opportunities and support for their children. Her love only become stronger with the addition of her two grandchildren, Payton and Kaz.

Despite her large extended family, Shawn always made time for everyone. Her favorite activity was to visit, which led to her making friends anywhere and everywhere. Her only request for birthdays or holidays was a phone call. She could talk for hours in person or on the phone. Her memory was impeccable. She would recall the funniest stories, give spot on impressions, and would always listen no matter the circumstances. She also loved to cook, keep an immaculate house, and listen to music.

Shawn lived a full life as a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, and friend. She left this earth far too soon and will be deeply missed and forever in our hearts. Her biggest wish would be to carry her memory on with stories and laughs.

Shawn is survived by her mother Anne of Fort Yates; stepfather Sandy Luger of Fort Yates; her sons, Delbert (Abby) of Brookline, MA and Kristopher (Kamy) of White Horse; grandchildren, Payton and Kazmer; her siblings, Michelle LeBeau of Kansas, Shane Luger (Camie) of Fort Yates, and Josh Luger (Sabrina) of Bismarck; sisters-in-law, Deleen (Albert) of Arizona, and Nadeen (Art) of Faith; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, nieces and, of course, all of her dearest friends and acquaintances.

She is preceded in death by her husband Delbert (Gumbo); her father, Jeffrey LeBeau; and grandparents, Fred LeBeau, Mae Lawrence LeBeau, and Gordon and Gwendolyn Valandra.
