I still grieve your loss, Deb and family. I only knew Shawn for a short time but knew right away that he was a Christian, a warm and caring person, and someone I had hoped my son, Jon, and I could get to know better. I know Shawn is present with the Lord and we will get to see him again. May the Lord continue to comfort you and your family, Deb.

Shawn was a gentle giant, the rock of our Moczek Specht family. No matter where we traveled and lived during our years, Shawn made an effort to see us. Shawn was an awesome Man; his heart & soul was taking care of people, family and friends. I will always remember our long talks, laughter & his keen sense of humor. Our thoughts, prayers and love surround you Debbie, Justin & Amber during this difficult time. We love you and will always have Shawn in our hearts.

Starting when Shawn was 5 years old.

His family will be in our prayers.

To the family of Shawn Moczek,
It's been a long time since I've heard the name Shawn Moczek and am very disappointed I had to see it on the obit page of today's Wheeling,WV paper. I will always remember Shawn as the quiet, tall, red haired kid who use to play basketball in my backyard and at East End playground with the rest of his St Francis and Bishop Donahue teammates during the early 70's. I hope those memories stayed with Shawn through his life. I'm sure he was every bit of a good adult as he was a kid. My thoughts and sympathy are with all of his family and friends.
