To The Shambee Family:

It is so hard to find words to express the deep sadness that is felt losing a member of the family. Tristan was a fine young man. May your loving memories of him last a lifetime.

Our condolences go out to the Shambee family for the loss of their son Tristan. We did not know Tristan because my son Dylan just started playing for the U-14 Team Evanston soccer this year (B Team). From talking to people that do know him he will be truly missed by all.
