My dearest big brother,
I wasn't able to read or write anything in your guest book because the pain of losing you is unbearable...I stumbled onto this page tonight by accident and it tore my heart out. Until this great loss, I never knew one person could leave such a void. I hate that you were forced to fight for your life before it ever really began...I will forever wish it had of been me. I couldn't have loved you more if I had tried...me without you will never feel right. Shaunie I'm going to love you forever and I missed you before you even left. To the most amazing brother in the world, I hope your wings are as beautiful as I imagine them. Life will never be the same...

His Journey Has Just Begun......

Don't think of him as gone away--
his journey's just begun
life holds so many facets
this earth is only one.
Just think of him as resting
from the sorrows and the tears
in a place of warmth and comfort
where there are no days and years.

Think how he must be wishing
that we could know today
how nothing but our sadness
can really pass away.

And think of him as living
in the hearts of those he touched...
for nothing loved is ever lost--
and he was loved so much.

Trish and The Breckon family, my most sincere condolences for your loss. Words can never take away the pain but I hope with all of the support of your friends,family and loved ones that it can help to ease the pain.Shaun was a great man who faught a great fight, he will be sorely missed but never forgotten as he left a mark on everyone he met!
Gone to soon...RIP Shaun!!

It's odd for me to struggle while trying to find the words to express how I feel, but I find myself stumbling here. I've probably re-typed this same paragraph 35 times. I met Shaun when we worked in Hull together. I believe we worked together there for close to 3 years. Through all the craziness we went through, never did I have to wonder if Shaun had my back, EVER. He was a stand up guy that would fight for what he believed in. Beneath his tough exterior, he was kind, generous friend. The winter jacket I wear to this day, Shaun gave me because mine got torn-up by Police at work. I offered to pay him for it, and he wouldn't take my money. That's the type of guy he was, just ask anyone that was fortunate enough to have known him. To anyone reading this, I considered Shaun my brother, and to me there is no greater respect. To Lia and Trish, even though only time can make the pain seem tollerable, please know that if I was as strong as either of you, I would gladly take some of your hurt away, if only for a couple of moments. I can't express how I feel any better than that. If I can help you guys in any way at all, please let me know.

To Shaun's family, I am sorry for your loss. Shaun was a great guy; pretty damn hard not to like him! He is going to be missed.
