Not sure what to say?

I was working at an after hours club in NYC called No Se No, where the Clintons played their first shows, they were one of the greatest bands I ever saw. Clint was a natural. He should have stayed in NYC, he would have eventually made it (in my opinion). I still play their 45-- Drive Me Home all he time. RIP Shannon--- The Hound.

kimberly, we are so sorry to lose such a sweet soul....our love to you and all of the children. We will think of him often as he has captured our lives in stills...and decorated our home with our children.......we loved him.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you, Family. We were so sad to hear of Shannon's passing. He was such a gifted photographer- one I don't think we'll ever be able to replace. We are forever indebted to him for giving us the most beautiful, precious photo memories of our son. He had such a knack for capturing, Aiden's vast personality in "all" of its forms (smile). May his memories warm your hearts as they do ours.

I played a lot a lot of shows with Shannon back in The 5 twins hayday,
that's how we met.............. through the power of music, Rock On Shannon, we'll miss you.

Dana and Katherine,

Love, Kathy Mitchell

Rock icon, gifted photographer and great man. God bless Shannon's family and we'll be praying for you during this difficult time.

Our deepest sympathy to the family. We have been praying for Shannon. We now know why he was such a busy man and why he found such strength to fight hard. I last saw him , with cup in hand and Tate getting the mail, late last fall. I went to speak with him and he amazed me with his strong, positive outlook. We've missed the sounds of a very active and full life. The sounds of the children. Tate, determined to master that skateboard and hockey stick, and the giggles of Katherine and Elise. We...

I am so so sorry for your loss. I do not really have words but I do have prayers. Shannon was an artist in many areas. He did so much more than most in much less time. His amazing zest for life was inspiring. I met him when he was 16 (5Twins Knoxville & The Clintons NYC) but I still heard the same passion in his voice decades later. Shannon has been and will always be in my heart. God Bless.

For all the years we've known each other, I can think of no one else who had such a zest for living. What fond memories we have of pool parties, political discussions, and story telling on the deck! Shannon was funny and friendly, entertaining and engaging man who clearly loved life. He enjoyed his music, his career, his friends, and especially his family. Shannon was always a good friend, a kind person, and a proud dad.
Shannon kept such a positive outlook despite his diagnosis,...
