She and her husband Syl were devastated and wanted justice. They were told the execution of Shannon's killer would bring them closure. Instead, they chose to honor their daughter's memory by working to end the death penalty. For the past 20 years, the Schiebers have traveled across the United States, sharing their experience. They have played key parts in successful campaigns to end the use of the death penalty, including in their home state of Maryland. But as Vicki is always quick to say, "Pennsylvania is personal. I know this is what Shannon would want us to do." Join us for an event you will never forget. Free event and open to the public. Seton Hill University 1 Seton Hill Dr. Greensburg, PA 15601	19	20
