It was the best 15 years of my life, and I will never replace you....ever. im sorry I wasn't there, I have to live with that the rest of my life, and I know that at times I wanst the bset husband, but I loved you more than anything. you were so beautiful inside and out, a heart that had no boundaries. the most beautiful voice I ever heard, thinking about you doing karaoke still makes me cry, I miss your voice and your laugh, the most beautiful noise on gods earth. I miss you so much everyday, im so lonely without you, every day is a struggle to just go on. please forgive me for everything I couldn't do for you, and forgive for not being the man that you needed. my world ended that day in September and I hope you are at peace now baby...

Randy and Karen, I can't begin to express how heart breaking the news is about Shawna's passing. Meeting Shawna and your family was a very special gift to me. Although I haven't seen or spoke to any of you in years, I think of all of you often. Shawna was someone that will never be forgotten and those of us that were lucky enough to have met her and to be touched by her goodness are the ones that have been blessed. I thank God that I was able to have Shawna in my life and will cherish the memories I have with Her as a young girl. Her smile and her laugh is still loud in my mind. I smile when I think of her laugh and loving spirit. Thank you for bringing such a beautiful lady into this world. I only wish I could have spent more time with her through the years. I will never forget Shawna.

Dear Shawna, Karen and Randy, You all have been a part of my life for many years. Shawna always was close to my heart. I loved her so much! She was always an inspiration to me from the day I met her. May her drawings, music and creativity, inspire all of us. I must say I have love in my heart for you and your family. Love Misty, Steve and Joey the puppy.

Randy and Karen. My heart breaks for the two of you. The main memory I have of and about Shawna was when we were doing the fundraising for her double lung transplant. I am so happy that I was part of that. She was such a sweetheart and inspiration. Prayers for you two as you mourn the loss of your very special daughter. Love you guys.

My beautiful niece Shawna you are singing with the angels now. You will always and forever be in my thoughts.

shawna was a very sweet and great person i will miss her

Shawna was a student of mine in Biology II honors at Hamilton High. She was a true delight and had a wonderful outlook on life. I still remember her infectious laugh. She will be sadly missed. My condolences to the family for their tremendous loss.

Karen and Randy, We are so sorry for the loss of Shawna. We loved her so much. She is a Angel now.

When I was 16 years old, I got a job working at Hollywood Video and I met this funny, smart, tiny, amazing woman who quickly became one of my best friends. For years we were inseparable. She is, was, and always will be an important person in my world and in my heart and she will always be a dear friend. I know that she is up there, looking down on all of us with that big smile of her's, and she is no longer in pain. And until the day when we meet again, when she greets me at those pearly gates with a spring in her step and her contagious laugh, I will miss her dearly. Love you, Shawna Cox! We haven't spoken in far too long, but the memories we made together will last a lifetime.

Dear Karen and Randy,
What a beautiful soul we were all blessed with! I have never known anyone with such fight and determination, while being the sweetest and most loving young woman. She was by far one of the most inspirational people to have touched my heart. We all lost a little piece of our hearts with her passing, but boy, imagine the time she is having in heaven right now! We always knew she was an angel...

I had the distinct privilege of getting to know and work with Shawna over the past 5 years. She was such a vibrant and dynamic person! I always learned something from her on each visit. I was consistently impressed with her wit, determination and joy of life given the adversities that she faced. She never expressed remorse to me nor would she tolerate pity in regards to her medical issues. She was large and in charge, at all times - I was blessed to be included in her aura. I will miss you Ms. Cox. I am a changed man and a better doctor having known you and I will carry the lessons that you taught me to my grave. Rest in peace my friend.

Randy and Karen, Its been many years since I have seen you all. I remember Shawna and the sweet smile she always had. My heart goes out to you and I will continue to pray for you both.

Randy and Karen, may God be with you both during your time of grief. Shawna will always be with you in your hearts and memories. Love you both.
