Shawn S. Negralle
Shawn S. Negralle of Higganum, CT died unexpectedly on Monday, July 12th 2021 at the age of 45. Shawn was born in Middletown, CT on April 9th, 1976 to Peter and Debbie Negralle. He graduated from Vinal in 1995. Shawn is survived by his mother Debbie, eldest brother Peter Negralle Jr., and his wife Melanie, two nieces Chelsea and Mia; uncle Anthony Negralle and his wife Donna; Cousin Joshua Negralle. Shawn was predeceased by his father Peter Negralle Sr. and youngest brother Todd. Shawn leaves behind his beloved dog Django, best friends Marissa Feighery, husband Shawn and their four children; Shelly Rothstein, husband Rick and their two daughters, Brett Malone, Tommi Bennet Shawn Rockwell and too many more to possibly mention.
Shawn had a heart of Gold. He was a devoted, kind, caring friend to all who he knew and loved. He was a loving, caring, devoted, hard working, committed, loyal, understanding, kind generous, protective, old soul who always tried his best knowing he was far from perfect. Shawn had a great sense of humor and his heart was enormous.
Shawn enjoyed many things including snowmobiling, sports (he was a devout NY Giants fan), traveling, vacations to warm exotic places, and boating as he was an avid boater. Being in the sun and on the water was his happy place. He absolutely loved to go shopping and spending time with his loved ones and friends. He loved being the life of the party and used to throw the most epic Halloween parties. He was an animal lover. The most love and joy he had was his absolute best friend and late dog Cash, Django and his cat Simba.
Shawn will be deeply missed by his family and friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
Graveside services will be held on Saturday, July 31st at 11 a.m. in the Higganum-Burr Cemetery, Higganum. The Coughlin-Lastrina Funeral Home, 491 High St., Middletown, is in charge of arrangements.

Our time these last few months was so special. We had some really deep conversation, more than we ever had previously. I am heartbroken that you are not here. Yet I know that you are with Todd and Pops, which your heart yearned for. My friend, you are free from all that troubled you. From all the painful things you endured in life, you are now free. Please keep that electric smile and beautiful laugh going and we will laugh together again one day. From my lips to God's ears Shawnee, may he seat you at his right hand where you belonglove you and miss you my dear friend. We will keep you close to our hearts always

Shawn was a class clown. He always made everyone around him smile and laugh. The memory I have of when we were young is what I will keep close. We all have loved ones in heaven that I pray will always surround you with love. You meant something different to each person you touched and were special to all of us. Rest in peace in gods arms.

My dearest Shawn, this is all so surreal. I miss you so much!! You will forever be a part of me. Although my heart aches, I take comfort in knowing you are at complete peace now in heavenly paradise and happier than u could have ever possibly been here on earth, reunited with pops and Todd. You were a genuine one of a kind soul. The special memories will always bring a smile; If only I could have you back for just a little while. Then we could sit and talk again just like we used to do. You always meant so very much and always will too. The fact that you are no longer here will always cause me pain but you are forever in my heart till we meet again. I love you Shawn. Rest Peacefully my dearest friend.

My deepest most heartfelt condolences to my best friend Marissa and Shawn's family. Shawn aka 'HOLLYWOOD', as I affectionately called him, was very dear to me and would always bring a smile to my face and truly make me feel beautiful inside and out. One of the kindest, honest, 'straight' up people I have ever been lucky enough to know and blessed to call my good friend. Tragic loss, I am going to miss him dearly! 'Free of Pain' now....my 'HOLLYWOOD'...You are truly 'FREE' now.My 'Brothers' in Heaven will 'guide' you and take you under their 'STRONG HARLEY' wings! Rest in Peace 'Hollywood'...will always hold you in my heart.

A friend an son, I first met Shawn 12 years ago a dear friend he was like a son to me a very generous an kindhearted person he was always there to help anyone, he was a humorous person always making you laugh.This is not the end my friend but the beginning, just as the ocean sing songs to infinity, our friendship too will flow onward until the day one of us turns and leaves and the seasons will turn too. As our shell return back to the sand and the tide that brought us forth will take us back again,I will never forget you my friend an son. Every time you see a wave rushing to meet another two friends will unite.Every time you see a wave crashing, two friends depart.The journey will go on my son, our memories are recorded in sea shells to show an tell, the lessons learned in these heavens part of the sea of life and when the tide is right we shall cross path again,when the ocean sings our song. Rest in peace my son and perpetual light shine upon you.
