Shawn my wonderful Shawn!!!!! man i miss you buddy i miss your laugh i miss being over there everyday, i miss picking on you, i miss being the first one to tickle you and makin you mad about it!! i miss you coming over everynight at 3 o clock in the morning and then you'd go home and then come right back over three minutes later!!!! i just cant wait till i get to see you again someday!!! i love you so so so so much!!!



I sit here alone wondering why

Our lives have to end and we all have to die.

We have no idea or no way of knowing

Of when we’ll die or where we’re going

I sit here thinking of the people I’ve lost

Knowing of the pain and misery it’s cost

You could lose a family member or your very best friend

You would have had no idea that it was the end

If we had an idea of when our time would come

You would make the most of it and have some fun

You would cherish those days as much as you could

Forgetting all the bad times and making them good

When those days are over and your time is here

Hold tight to your memories and keep them near

When you rise up to God and the heavens above

Look down and watch over the ones that you love.



I quiver. I shiver.

They tell me the news.

I wonder why He chose you.

I walk the streets remembering you

No matter what they say,

it’s still the same.

Only you could fill the empty void

I know you’re okay and feel no pain,

But with each passing day

I say a prayer asking God to take care of you.

We miss you and love you.

In our hearts is where you’ll stay,

Until we meet again in Heaven someday.

Well Im not quite sure what to say here. I only met Shawn a few times and know little of his character or passions. I do know that alot of people have been really affected by his absence. I do know that his family feels his void. I do know that everyone he met was so touched by him. Im sorry for this loss. I wish I had better words to say, youll be missed.

I reviewed a few guest book entries and decided I would write again. It was really difficult fighting through Shawns viewing and funeral, I saw a lot of sad faces and seeing that made it harder. I realized I didn't know much about Shawn's past, and knowing that, it hurts me. I feel I should have gotten to know him better during his time here, now I have to wait until we meet again. I don't like having to wait until my time is up to get to know someone I should have taken the time to know here. It saddens me we weren't closer. I have a feeling we might have been better friends had I just given the time to learn more about him. Everyone is upset about his passing, but everyone needs to realize now that he is watching over us. He will get the chance to make sure we don't make any mistakes that might make us meet him again sooner than needed. I'm looking forward to meeting him again in paradise, I hope he has a spot waiting for me. It will truly be my honor to join him in the after life, I just wish he hadn't have beaten me there. I know though, that if I had passed before him, he would feel the same pain.



Shawn I know we weren't the best of friends, but damn it I miss you so much already. You watch over us all, so we don't fall short of our true time. I miss you buddy, I can't wait to meet you in paradise. You live it up until I get there, because when I do, we'll live it up together. Much love Shawn, God be with your soul.

ive known shawn for about 4 or 5 years, never really became too close of friends with him, but we did hang out on occassion, skate, party, and what not.But even though we never became too close of friends, i wish now that i had gotten to know him better, because u never realize how interesting and great a person is until they're gone:(.But i send my love to the people who were affected most by his death, and hope they will stay strong and keep in mind that he is in a much safer place where nothing can hurt him.....Heaven

While I had only met him several times he was a special friend to my daughter, Kassy. My heart and prayers go out to you. He will always be with you in heart and in spirit.

Shawn and I weren't close, we actually only met and talked a few times. He seemed like a nice guy and I'm sure he was. It's a terrible tragedy that he's been taken away from all his friends and family. He has been called back home to wait for his friends and family to join him. He is watching over everyone and he knows how much everyone misses him already. Shawn will be in all our hearts and memories. Everyone please hang in there, you will pull through this.

I've known Shawn for quite a while. Him and I weren't too close but we were more than acquaintances. It's a shame Shawn had to be taken from us at such a young age, but he left quickly and suffer free. No words can help make this transition of life to death any easier, but take comfort in those around you and know that Shawn is in good hands. I hope everyone can make it through this terrible tragedy. My heart is with you all, Shawn is in my thoughts and I prayed for him and you all at the place of his accident. I hope to see more questbook signings, and everyone at the funeral. Everyone please hang in there, we are all here for each other.



Feel free to contact me for anything, I don't know what you would need to talk to me about but feel free. 817-306-1061
