Shawn was also the smiling welcoming face during our work and social visits to the BDC. Just walking past the showroom entrance without stopping in to say hello sometimes got us the laughing evil eye! He was a wonderful friend and colleague and from all the other family and friend posts here and online. It makes me happy to know he was widely appreciated for who he was and all he did for everyone else.

Shawn always made visits to the showroom such fun. He had a kind, gentle spirit and that wry sense of humor. The world has lost one of the truly good ones. My heart goes out to all who have been lucky enough to have their lives touched by him. Shawn, you will be missed.

I am very sad to hear about Sean's passing. I have worked with him over the years as a client at Stark. He was a lovely man and always so helpful. I loved his kindness and gentle soul. RIP. Cheryl

Shawn was always reaching out to us family members and trying to think of ways to make our lives better, or easier. He took a leadership role in so many situations in our lives. Unfortunately, we lost our Dad in the spring, before his loss, when he would visit my Dad in the nursing home, Shawn would spend hours cleaning his house out to get it ready to sell. This made it easier for all of us. Thank's to Daron's help with this as well. I don't know how you kept up with him. We have story after story of Shawn giving his time and energy and caring to help others and spur them on to change something they should. He was a wonderful, creative, energetic, caring big brother who i admired and loved with all my heart.
