Mary, I just heard from Suzanne (who ran into you at Kroger) and learned about Shawn. I know how much you love him and what a wonderful Mother you were to him. My heart goes out to you and you will certainly be in my prayers. My three daughters also send their prayers and love to you. We are so very sorry.

Shawn was always laughing and telling jokes in school to make people happy. His bright smile was contagious.
I appreciated his act of kindness when he helped me when I was stranded in the rain. Thats just how he was.
Thanks for the laughter.

Mary,

I was saddened and shocked to see the passing of Shawn. You were always a wonderful monther. A parent is never to bury their children and I ask God to surround you with his angels in the days, months and years ahead to ease the pain of your broken heart. Keep the memories of him close to your heart and never forget without a doubt he loved you very much and was a mama's boy. Love you my long time friend and will be praying for you.
