Shawn,
This is your sis Meo. I know I just recently went to visit you but I had a dream about you and Bug the other night. It was so real. Lil Bug had grown big enough to play basketball and me and the girls were at his game. It was in the last quarter with ten seconds remaining. Lil Bug went to make the shot but he was all the way in mid-court as if he was going to try to dunk it. Out of no where you and Bug got on each side of him and guided him in to the hoop. It reminded so much of the movie "Angels in the Outfield". I know yall are watching over him. He talks about the both of you all the time. I can only pray that God protects and keeps him to live a long life with great accomplishments. I know both he and the girls will make us proud. Give my love to my husband. You both will never be forgotten.

Sean I can't express how much I miss u chilling wit us. I can say we had fun before you passed. I'm happy we got to out. I would've never thought you would leave us this way , but I know you're in a better place. The good ones go for a reason and you were a good and repectful young man. But trust me he ain't got all the ones. So till that day comes when we meet in that special place, I love you brah and you will truly be missed. I will keep in touch with your girl. To his mother you raised a good young man and I will keep you in my prayers. With deepest sympathy.

Shan I can't begin to tell you how much I miss you already. I miss you calling when you know I'm watching a good basketball game and you say Ma' they ballin. And when the WIRE come on you yelling Ma' you see that. But I thank God for letting me have you for twenty eight years. I will see you again and thats a promise. I'll always love you. You were my first born son and always watch over me and your lil brother Brandon. Your Mom Chippo

My dearest Chippo, I felt a deep hurt when I heard your message that Sean had passed away. I have fond memories of you and the boys back in the day at the "beauty shop". Please take care of "your" self. Prayer changes things. I will be around to check on you. I love you not as a customer but as a friend. Stay strong. My prayers and thoughts are with you.

You will be missed Sean. Who knew that just the day before we would talk about the value of life & how much you cherished it but wasn't afraid of the next life. In having that conversation with you I know that you are smiling down on all of your friends and family.. You will not be forgotten. I have had the great pleasue of meeting you. See you again!! My sympathy goes out to all of his family and friends. God has his way of taking the best of us some time. Now you are a guardian angel!!!

Dorothy,
I never got to meet your son but, I do remember so well of how much you spoke of him when we worked together at Breyers. Back then you would say, "That's my baby". I'm sure your baby grew to be a fine young man. I was sadden to hear of his death at this young age.
I can only believe that Our Father felt it was his time.
Be strong my friend and remember if God brings you to it, he will see you through it. Joy will come in the morning.
Bless you and your family.

Shawn,
Man I'm going to miss you. Whether it was at aunt boo boo house on 2nd street to when she moved both times on 1st Street. We all have our memories of us growing up together especially you and Sam always together. I can't bear to ride through there again and not see you to talk or even just to blow the horn. I know we don't supposed to question God but I still wished we all could have grown old together and sppent more time as cousins normally do. I will still keep those fondest memories of you in my heart forever. Love you Shawn

To my cousin Dorothy and family. I was truly shocked to hear the news about Shaun and although i'll miss seeing him when I pass through JW around I'll always remember those fun times of babysitting him and Brandon in my heart. Shaun may not have stayed with us long but because he was such a beautiful person his spirit will live on with us forever. I love you much and I will keep you in my prayers.

To the Family; I don't know where to start. This is hard for me because i knew Lil Shawn and he was such a nice kid when i met him and he grew into a nice young man. I just can't believe that he is gone along with Bug and Milk Dud. First street just won't be the same. You all just hold your head up high and know that you all have a mini army in heaven watching over you all, because they were by far true soldiers. You and yours will be in me and mine prayers.

God looked around his garden and found an empty place. He then looked down upon Earth and saw Shawn. He put his arms around him and lifted him to rest. God's garden must be beautiful because he always takes the best.
You will always be in my HEART CUZ!
