Shawn was a friend of mine. I'm sorry for your loss. I was out of town and just learned of this. He was great at trivia!

Please accept my heartfelt condolences for the loss of Shawn. We worked together at DNR. Our last long conversation was at Sandy Point State Park during one of our annual meetings. He was a remarkable person and his memory will live on forever.

Shawn and I worked together at Nichi Bei Kai in Lutherville senior year in high school. We had to wear maroon colored robes LOL. He would pick me up in his baby blue convertible Mustang, he loved that car. We played football together at THS. We hitchhiked home from OC one time and the guy who picked us up played Christopher Cross on a never ending loop the whole ride. We couldn´t wait to get out of that car. RIP buddy

With deepest condolences to Shawn´s family. I had the great pleasure of working with Shawn at DNR. The pride that he had for his work was surely  dwarfed by the pride he had for his family. And he would be sure to share a family story, peanut butter buckeye or his mom´s pumpkin bread to make sure we all knew. After learning that my son had a severe peanut allergy he even take the time to ensure that our holiday treats were peanut free (with ingredients listed) so Owen wouldn´t feel left out. That is what I remember of Shawn. Whether at work, bowling or playing softball he was an "includer." He would go out of his way for those who needed it - to share a story, family recipe or just listen as way to make you feel like part of a family. Again I am so sorry to hear and my best to the entire  Ryan family.

Shawn was one of my very best friends growing up. I spent many nights Friday nights at his house. He made me go to Catholic mass before we could go out on a Friday night, but we had some great times in the basement of his Rodgers Forge house he literally taught me how to play baseball, we had a lot of laughs together. He came out to California visited me. I took him to Mexico gotten some trouble but that´s what boys do. Love you, Shaun. I´ll never forget you.

Sending my codolences to the family. I'm going to miss Shawn and our talks. He would often talk about his mom and bring me sweets that she made. I was his safe place to vent about things and get it off of his chest. That was my buddy. This was a shock! Praying for the mom & family. Sorrowfully, Dionne
