Mishon Shanley, 39, passed away on March 31, 2026. Mishon was born in Poplar, Montana. She is Assiniboine, Shoshone, and Chippewa, enrolled with the Fallon Paiute-Shoshone Tribe.
Mishon is survived by her son, Killian Ryan, and grandson, Kyro Northsun/Ryan; her mother, Nila Shanley; her father, James Shanley; her brothers, Cody and Jesse Windriver; her brother, Claymore Shanley; her brother, Lance Matsushige; her sisters, Jesi-kate and Erin Shanley; and her grandfather, Adam Fortunate Eagle. Along with numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews.
She was predeceased by her grandmother, Bobbie Nordwall, and her partner, Steve Ryan.
Mishon loved to party with her many friends. She had many hopes and dreams, such as becoming a screenwriter (there’s a beginning manuscript somewhere). She loved movies and comedians. She loved most of all her son, Killian, and becoming a grandmother to Kyro (3 months old). She also loved her silly dogs, Bosko and Bane.
Those who know her… know her. And for those who did not have the pleasure, there’s no explaining the loss we feel for her vibrant personality and wicked humor.
There will be a celebration of life in the near future, location to be determined. We invite all of her friends and relatives to share happy memories of her.
