Read MoreWell Pop, I remember as a kid, living on a farm in Washinton and Tony the field hand, shucking corn and picking peas and grean breans, and shaging TP (news paper ) from us kids. He showed us kids how to shuck corn and peas. from when we moved from the farm to the new house, It was me and Steve and the other kid that didn't talk much and couldn't walk, but had a big smile all the time, (billy ). You were always my hero Pop.

Grandpa,
when grandma passed everything changed and our family's world became a lot less bright but you were still there smiling and laughing and we were thankful for every moment...even if some of our moments were limited. I miss you terribly, we all do it has been months and it still doesnt feel real. Til we all meet again at the gates of heaven may we all be together then even if we have trouble doing so now, in Jesus name I pray amen.<3

Dear Shea family members I met Don in the 1980's through some social and business contacts in Tempe,Az. We shared a lot during that time before I relocated to the boondocks. His warmth, his love for his family, his humor and wit,his hard work and good business sense was always evident. Don did indeed "lasso the moon and the stars and pull that rope tight." God bless Don and you his family members. Sincerely, Bill Orth

Dear Shea family members,
The world lost one of the good guys. I am so sorry to hear about Don's passing. He was the best boss I ever had. He actually got my sense of humor. He enjoyed being around people, especially his family and friends. He was also a very caring person. I remember being homesick and too broke to fly back to Ohio to visit, and your dad and mom bought me a round trip ticket to go home. That says a lot about the kind of people they were, not too many bosses would...

I miss you.
