Shaun

I have been fortunate to share with you and Wynema the last five years of good times, as well as the less than good times.

Your passing from this world into the next is sure to be a joyous event for you. It has left a void in mine, as with many other of your friends. We will have to continue on without your physical presence.

I look forward to seeing you when my exploration of this life is through. Please have a hug, a smile and a laugh ready for me when I get to see you next.

I just found out of you passing last night (2/22) and it has left me feeling that I have lost a part of myself. I love you as you are a brother to me. I am happy for you that God has taken you back home with him but I will miss you greatly.

Your friend in this life and all lives to come.

Wynema and Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time. Shaun was a very Special Person, he was so kind hearted and cared about everyone that he came in contact with. We have alot of great memories that we will cherish forever! Wynema I know that your buddy is gone, but he's around you all the time, just in spirit, instead of flesh and blood. I know he would want us all to celebrate his life with all the wonderful things he accomplished, in the short time he was here. We will always love and miss him!

This is like the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Shaun was not only my best friend, but he was like a brother. Dolly is what brought us together, we met standing in line for a Dolly concert. We shared alot of happy times together...me Shaun & Wy...we were the three musketeers!! Shaun was always there for me, he will always have a place in my heart. I could go on for days about the memories we shared. "I will always love you"

Shaun was a great friend. He'll be very missed.

He was the best man at my wedding last May. He was helping my wife and I run around and be puppets for the photographer and we was so attentive, making sure everything was looking good and in the right position for each picture.

My wife and I, my parents & brothers, & the photographer who has seen more than her share of weddings were all Very Impressed by what an Amazing best man Shaun was. A better best man we will never know.
