I often think of you, your smile, your giggle, and your light!

Still miss and think of you often.

Dearest Shawn,
Your passing was more than I could bear. It has taken me four years to come to grips with loosing you and Kelli. You too were my oldest and dearest friends. You could always make me laugh, and you taught me how to laugh at life. Caring for Gregory (ReeRee) was one of my greatest pleasures. To say I miss you wuld not express my true feelings. I look to the day when we meet again in heaven and can laugh at all the stuff we did as kids. I will never forget, Love...

Hey there woman! I have been thinking about you a lot lately. My son Andrew is leaving for the NAVY in July( 6ft 2 , 20 YRS OLD-CAN U BELIVEVE IT?) so I am finally gonna be able to put the music on loud and run all over the house naked!(remember how we used to laugh about that when the kids were little?) I heard that your daughter is doing great- you would be proud! And I am sure your son is terrific as always. I worked in Mnateca the other night with DR. OLLADA and I just want you to know...

Mom,
So I am here in my new home that I wish you could see. I was unpacking that antique china that nana made me bring to Los Angeles, although I had no room. Ha! Remember when we were packing it up and Turnbull dropped that one tea cup and it broke, well I am still lugging that broken tea cup around too. I guess I am hoping Turnbull will oneday glue it back together. So, i was putting these dishes away in my new home and I thought I would put on some Matchbox 20 on, that way I could have...

HEY THERE SHAWN-WE MISS YOU SO VERY MUCH AND KNOW THAT YOU ARE IN HEAVEN WITH YOUR MOM NOW WATCHING OVER ALL OF US. WE WENT TO THE "AFTER CHRISTMAS" SALES @ TARGET (FOR ALL OF THE CLEARANCE CRAP)AND I THOUGHT ABOUT YOU THE WHOLE TIME, MISS YA.

Shawncey...
I was walking into work saturday, and I was thinking about Autumn's bus trip to Reno in March...I was thinking to myself, "I need to call and remind Reg and Shawn"...then it struck me...again...Love You, Miss You

I can't believe how much I miss my nuttiest friend. Not a day goes by that you are not in my thoughts. I am still very mad at you for leaving me. We had a great thing going. Now I feel empty and lost. I could never even imagine what your family must feel. I hope that you and Wilma Karels are having fun together! I'll try to keep an eye on your family. It is tough, though. reg
