Still missing you

Amber & family, I am so sorry to hear about Shawn. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am so very sorry to hear about Shawn. It has been a real shock. I remember the first time I worked with him. He was a real hoot!! We saw each other occasionally, but had lost touch as our lives went different paths. He will be sorely missed and the family will be in our prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of Shawn''s passing. We were classmates at Cedar Grove and he was always an upbeat and kindhearted guy. Everyone had lots of fun with Shawn. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and many friends.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. I was a childhood friend of Amber''s back in the day. I have alot of fond memories of Shawn. He was a good person and will be missed. My deepest sympathy.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. Our hearts are heavy as we remember Shawn, and may you find comfort in knowing that our memories of him are happy ones. I''ll never forget the time Shawn and I took my brothers blue Chevette for a ride and I told him that he was the coolest(and cutest) friend my brother had. Our whole family loved Shawn. My dad doesn''t warm up to everyone, but Shawn could even make my dad laugh. I hope that as his girls grow up they are reminded of how happy he made the people around him.

Barb and Family - we are so sorry to hear of Shawn''s passing. Just remember he is now with Mike in a better place.

I am saddened to learn of Shawn''s passing. There are a lot of good memories of Shawn while with us at Crystal Lake. Shawn always had a hello, always helped where needed and had an easy smile. Take care.

We would like to extend our sympathy to your family. Paul was Shawn''s Junior Varsity Football Coach in Cedar Grove. Always enjoyed working with him on the team. God bless you all!

Amber,Shannon, & family, I am so sorry for your loss.

Amber,Shannon&Family Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
