Susan Dee (“Shona”) Keller, of Lincoln, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on February 9, 2026, at the age of 73.
Born on November 29, 1952, in Chicago, Shona lived a life rooted in compassion, gentleness, and love. She was a devoted practitioner of Reiki healing and a dedicated social worker, offering comfort, presence, and quiet strength to all who sought her care. Whether through her professional work or her healing practice, she served others with deep empathy and unwavering kindness. Her work was not simply what she did — it was an expression of who she was: intuitive, generous of spirit, and profoundly compassionate.
Shona held deep respect and admiration for her father, whom she regarded as an integrous man whose character and moral clarity shaped her own understanding of how to live. She carried his example with her throughout her life and, in turn, was an integrous woman—guided by honesty, principle, and a steadfast commitment to doing what was right.
Shona had a special and enduring love for animals, cherishing their companionship and the simple joy they brought to her life. She adored her beloved cat, Pimento, whose presence and memory continued to comfort her even after his passing, and she carried a tenderness for all living beings.
She was a familiar and cherished presence in her beloved Todd Pond Condo Community in Lincoln. Shona could often be found walking the neighborhood roads, greeting neighbors, and sharing warm conversations with friends. Her daily walks were not just exercise, but a ritual of connection — a way to stay close to the people and place she loved.
Shona’s life was a testament to quiet grace, integrity, and heartfelt generosity. She will be remembered for her gentle smile, her listening heart, her strong sense of principle, and the calm reassurance she brought into the lives of so many.
There will be no formal memorial service. A gathering of friends may be organized at a later date to celebrate Shona’s life and the love she shared so freely.
She leaves behind a community of friends and neighbors who will miss her deeply and carry forward the kindness and integrity she so consistently embodied.
