I am so very sorry to hear of Shawn's passing. I remember him 1st learning how to handle the music for the dance floor & how easy going & joyful he was in learning the process. He had a winning smile & a great attitude. I personally, had not seen him for years, but I feel so sorry for Maurice & Leota Winnett & all of the extended family! My thoughts & prayers are with you all!
