Mr. & Mrs. Bergstrom,



We feel so sad to hear about the sudden loss of Shawn & Dinah. Shawn & Kelly were roomates for 2.5 years while Shawn lived in Great Bend. He also sang at our wedding in 1998. He was always so full of laughter and prank jokes. He made our life in Great Bend much happier, as were the rest of the lives he touched.



We knew Shawn & Dinah during their dating after Shawn's graduation from college. They were so much in love.



We will miss them alot.



We live in Ada, Oklahoma now and drive to Nebraska to see Gaytha's parents, we have thought of you and your family while driving near Courtland.



You are in our prayers.
