Shaun Loring Obituary
Shaun Albert Loring, 55, of Sturgis, South Dakota, formerly of Brinnon, passed away April 29, 2015, at Rapid City Regional Hospital after a brief illness.
Shaun was born July 6, 1959, in Seattle, Washington, to Harry and Jeannie (Morency) Loring.
He grew up in Brinnon, attending grade school there, and graduated from Quilcene High School.
Shaun was a logger for many years in the Olympic Mountains. When his health began to fail, Shaun had to retire, moving to Sturgis in 2013.
Shaun loved hunting, especially elk and grouse. He enjoyed the outdoors and hiked many trails, but he especially enjoyed spending time with his kids.
Survivors include his wife, Beth Bartlett of Sturgis; his children, Emily Ward, Steven Daniel "Buck Jr.", Cody, Garret, Raymond and adopted daughter Megan Short; brothers Sam Boling, Tim Hodge, Gary Loring, Lynn Loring and Steve Loring; sisters Jenny Loring, Vicki Visser and Sandy Boling; aunt Maryann Morency; nieces and nephews Logan York, Katie York, Nellie Morency, Samantha Coleman, Aaron Boling, Jason Boling, Adam Boling, Brant Boling, Jake Boling and Ryan Larrance; cousins Danae Morency, Keli Anderson, Melissa Boling and Terri Morency; and numerous other family members.
A memorial has been established to the Arthritis Foundation.
A celebration of Shaun's life will be held at a later date in Brinnon.
