Daniel Joseph "Father Dan" Shashy

Fr Dan enriched my life and those of many other. His 2nd career as a priest was a blessing to everyone

I just found this obituary for Fr. Dan Shashy, the very honorable priest who solemnized my husband and I wedding at the Resurrection Catholic Church here in Jacksonville, FLorida in 1999. He's a hero and noble man in the eyes of God and all the people in America!

Our heartfelt condolences to the Shashy family. May Fr. Dan rest in peace and live forever together with his beloved wife in heaven.
God bless!

Monica, Paul, Veronica, and Andrew: Please accept my condolences for your loss. My parents have always spoken so highly of your dad..and of course I remember him and your mother fondly when I used to babysit you many, many years ago. You and your family are in my prayers.

Monica & Paul, I just heard of your father’s passing this past weekend and wanted to offer my sincere condolences. Growing up down the street from you, I remember your dad as such a nice and friendly man. I still vividly remember the winter wonderland that he created by running the sprinklers on the vacant lot behind your house during a freeze. All us neighborhood kids enjoyed it for quite a lot of days, which is why he did it. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the rest of your...

Our sincerest condolences to all the Shashy Family on the passing of Father Dan. He was a good man who cared about everyone he met. We are so sorry that we just heard of his passing Sunday night else we would have attended the services to honor him.

My Dad and "Father Dan" were friends at Lee and UF. Busy with jobs and families, they would visit at mass at CK. He came to visit my Dad every day whenever he was in the hospital these past few years and was so thoughtful and generous with his time during other family member illnesses. What a wonderful, kind and gentle man who loved his dear wife, family and friends. We will miss his smile.

Monica and Family,
You are in my thoughts and prayers during this sad time. Be consoled that your father is seeing God face to face along with your mother and the saints and angels in heaven. If only we all could give ourselves completely to the Will of our Heavenly Father and offer Him such a good life. Your friend

My thoughts and prayers go to the Shashy Family. I hope they know that Father Dan was a wonderful inspiration to those who were blessed to have met him. He will truly be missed but never forgotten.

Fr. Dan my friend and jokester. I will always love how you taught me to cook, took me to healing Masses, & invited me to sit down to lunch with you. I'll never forget our conversation about death and now you know. I feel blessed that I got to be a part of your life. You raised a wonderful family and leave a memorable legacy of love and laughter for all of us to remember. I just couldn't say good bye when I heard it was near the end. But you know I love you. Enjoy peace in heaven...
