Not sure what to say?

Shaun has been gone for five years now. I grew up with Shaun, attended Memorial Elementary School and played little league baseball with Shaun. My brothers and I were great buddies and neighbors of the Squires´, who lived only a block or two from each other. My dad, Skip, loved Shaun as if he were one of his own sons. We were there as your awesome dad, Jack, built us a little league sized baseball field in your huge backyard that abutted up next to that park I can´t remember the name of. You...

I will never get over you being gone. So amazing. So kind. So loved. So very very missed. We all still think about you daily. Plz hug mom for me and I pray that Sheldon is there with you as well. I'm doing the best I can to be there for dad. Thank you so much for those last few years where we were able to reconnect and be so close. Forgive me for moving to Montana and not being there for you. Had I known... I'll miss you until the day I die. Much much love..Sis

Shaun...Lived, Laughed, Loved! He was a "golden boy" that was proud of his family for their devotion & support.

I worked with Shaun for several months at Jim Doran. He was a good guy who always had a great piece of sarcasm to make you laugh in the morning. I didn't know him long. I knew him well enough to realize he was a gift. People come in and out of our lives for a reason. His time taught me life was too short to be wasting it not doing what I love. I miss you Shaun.

Shaun was a friend and good team mate. He was always happy and fun to be around. He will be missed!

Dear Sheldon and family,
Losing a sibling and child is indescribable...surround yourselves with people that offer comfort, and take care of each other. Remember, nobody knows how you feel!
My heart goes out to all of you.

The perfect picture of Shaun!! I can hear the laugh now and will always remember it!! Shaun you were a great guy and you will always be a happy memory for the me. Love you man!!

Jack and Family, Our hearts and prayers are with you during this very painful time. Even though it has been several years ago that we sat with you and Elinor
at the U of P baseball games. We have been in Arizona for the past 10 years and have lost touch with all of our U of P friends but have often thought of you, especially when we would see a little red Mercedes Convertable. My God take care of all of you.

Our deepest sympathy to the Squires family... My husband, Mike, went to school with Shaun at McMinnville HS, and played football and baseball with him. We are so sorry to hear of his passing and are keeping your entire family in our thoughts and prayers.
