I fondly remember the great times we had in both band class and just hanging out. You were such a sweetheart with a quiet wisdom, but always ready to joke.

Thanks for being a good friend. Rest In Heaven. Love ya, buddy.

I was deeply saddened by Shawn's passing. We were childhood friends! WE grew up together and he was at our house often as our yards connected. He was a loving guy and I will continue to pray for his family. RIP Shawn

I only met Shawn once when Windy introduced me to him at a Unity Performing Arts Foundation Concert a few years ago.You could tell you were very much involved with each other. My heart goes out to all of you. My prayers are with you and your family...for Windy to recover and be back with your family where she is needed. May the strength of the realationship you had together help your family get through the rough time ahead. Sincerely, Susan Schmelzer

Shawn, Your selfless giving will forever be remembered. We miss you terribly! I will never forget the (Unity) rehearsal when you caught the bat that got into the room, then set it free outside! You are a kind and gentle spirit, and now a guardian angel!

Shawn had such a meek and gentle spirit. He was willing to help wherever needed without ever complaining. He was a blessing to know. He will be missed by so many. May the Spirit of God's Love and Peace be comfort to those mourning his absence. He is among the Heavens as an Angel to his family and friends.
