Shaun Nelson Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by The House of Day Funeral Service, Inc. on Nov. 13, 2023.
Mr. Shaun Lenard Nelson was born to the union of Delores Regina Moore and Leonard Nelson, Jr. (deceased) on December 25, 1987. He peacefully transcended into heaven on November 11, 2023.
Shaun attended First Church Christian School and Central Catholic High School until his senior year and graduated from Bowsher High School. Shaun was a student at the University of Toledo until his desire changed to wanting to be employed doing general labor work.
Shaun enjoyed boxing, watching movies, listening to and writing music, eating at the cheesecake factory, spending time with his daughter, and being with family and friends. Shaun greatly loved dogs, especially pit bulls. Shaun's deep faith and trust in the Lord contributed to him rededicating his life to the Lord as his savior in October 2023. Shaun was a loving person who would be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. Shaun will remain in our hearts forever!
Shaun was preceded in death by his father, Leonard Nelson, Jr.; grandfather, Jerry Moore Jr.; uncle, Henry Moore; grandmother, Gloria Jean Nelson.
Shaun leaves to cherish his memory: his mother, Delores Moore; daughter, Micaela Nelson; three brothers, Anthony Nelson, Lashaun Nelson, and Lavante Nelson; two sisters, Ashley Nelson and Gloria Nelson; two uncles, Jerry Moore, Jr. III, and Jason Moore; aunt, Angela Davis; grandmother, Delores E. Moore; and a host of other loving relatives and kind friends.
