His loss will be felt by all those who knew him and the many who loved him. Our hearts go out to you all.

His laugh was contagious his heart was always pure and honest for whom ever entered his life and I never will forget how set in his ways he was. Even though Shawn wasn’t a tall man his personality measured him a giant! I will miss Shawn very much and I ask GOD to wrap his arms around him and take him home where he will know the sweetest peace. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
