Shawn Marie Swensen

I miss you, my friend. Today I'm happy remembering the 38 years I had with you, and tomorrow I'll cry over the 20 years I've been without you. You'll always be my best friend, and I'll always love you. Dawn

I miss you.

Oh, Shawn, I know my dad was so happy to see you on Christmas Eve! He adored you here on Earth and never got over your passing (as if any of us ever could), and now he gets to be with you in heaven!

When you are old time becomes slippery. It seems just like yesterday that I watched you playing in the front...

Missing you so much shawnie

Dear Swensen Family,
It was 4 years ago that I heard about beautiful Shawn. I was sitting on my porch tonight looking at Christmas lights and I thought about Shawn. I was so happy to see the guestbook and read the heart felt messages. I met Shawn 12 years ago. I was lucky to have been her client - meeting her through my brother Shawn. We always laughed about her sister Shelly and my brother Shawn. She truly was an angel here on earth and in heaven. She touched so many lives. Her son...
