Not sure what to say?

Vicki and family,
Shawn was always there for me, he was the reason I made Master Chief, he nick named me " Gunny" while I served on Gettysburg with Van Strickland, this name was because I was such a hard charger. The song of Luke Bryant "sit here and drink a beer" made me draw to tears tonight as it remeinded me of Shawn. A person of his caliber should never be taken so early, but I'm sure God has his reasons. This Friday I dedicate my retirement to your husband, for HE is the reason I'm...

I was very sad to hear of Shawn's passing away. The world has lost a Great guy. I will miss hanging out at the Blues festival with Shawn. He was always a pleasure to do business with on his A/C issues. My condolences to the Sullivan family. R.I.P Shawn, I hope that there are waves to catch in heaven. Bobby Mckinnon.

So very sorry for your loss Vicki. Sending you and your daughter prayers and Light.

To my good friend rip my deepest condolences
To the Sullivan family.
He will be more than missed.

Sullivan family,
Shawn meant a lot to me for all the things you already know about him. He made me laugh, mentored me on life and work and shared my pain. He knew my wife, Pat who worked with us too, and often included all in on his jokes. Loved the man and we will miss him dearly. God bless him.

Vicki. Sabrina. We are all so saddened by the loss of such a wonderful friend. I have worked with Shawn since we were RSG Mayport. I will miss his cheerfulness, his wisdom and kindness. God bless you both and please accept my heartfelt condolences.

Vicki- Shawn brought such light to me when I needed a rescue, just like you do and have since the minute you both walked into my life. The soul of a poet and a friend to all. I will miss him. Love and grace to you and Sabrina. You are in my prayers.

Vicki and Sabrina,

I am so, so sorry. My heart goes out to you. Shawn loved you both so much and bragged about you so often.
I met Shawn about 6 years ago surfing at Mayport. We kept in contact and had lots of great surf sessions together, as well as discussions about our families. I rode his Robert August longboard for about a month, a few years ago.
Shawn was a great guy , a great paddler, and a great surfer (long and short board). He always got tons of good...

I knew him at Maine Maritime, and as a fellow port engineer for the Navy. A good and honorable man.
