Dear Sheppick Family: What a shock to read of Shaun's passing. I am so sorry for your loss. Shaun was a friend of my son, Mike, when they were in elementary school, and they enjoyed visiting at each other's homes. Shaun was always pleasant and fun to have around. Mike and I have talked since reading of Shaun's passing, and he said what a good friend Shaun had been to him. Please know that our thoughts and prayers will be with you.

I worked with Shaun and Matt. I was fortunate enough to meet his family when he lived in Riverton. I found them to be very kind, generous and warm people. I learned of Shaun's passing when I got to work this morning and he and his family have been very heavy on my mind and heart all day. I pray that comfort and peace will find the souls of those left behind in mourning for what I knew to be a good man.

Hello, I knew Shaun in High School, we had art class together a couple of years. He was a great artist. My heart goes out to his family and friends. He will be missed by all that were fortunate enough to have known him.

Once upon a time, way back in the fifth grade, I considered Shaun to be my best friend. We didn't have a lot in common -- I was a bookworm and he was an outdoorsman -- but for some reason we clicked, at least for a while, and I remember him with great fondness. I haven't seen him in years (to my great regret) and I was shocked and saddened to learn that he had passed away. I offer my deepest condolences to his wife and daughters, and to his parents, brother and sisters. I know everyone says this, but if I can do anything to help any of you through this difficult time, please don't hesitate to ask.

I'm so sorry to hear of Shaun's passing. I really enjoyed the times we had together in the Boy Scouts. He was fun to be around and made the activities exciting.

My deepest condolences to the family. I was looking in the newspaper today and reconized the name. I went to school with Shaun from elementry at Riverton through High School at Bingham. I remember in elementry going to Shauns house and playing in the field behind his house down toward the Jordan river. I, as Shaun did, love hunting and spending time outdoors. I remember sharing hunting stories about trips with our fathers. I was not as close to Shaun through high school but I still would talk to him every once in a while and ask how the hunting has been. As a father myself to a two year old girl my heart goes out to his girls that he left behind. They and the rest of his family will be in my Wife's and I prayers.
