So..... I get to reminiscing about childhood and those I was friends with from and Shane has come to my mind a few times over the years. We were just little kids when he moved away but, I remember that he was always so sweet. I wondered where he went, what he was doing. I'm 15 years too late. That's heartbreaking. I named my oldest son Shane... with him in mind. I'm sorry that we never got to connect again. Fond memories.

Although I didn't know Shane very well, whenever I saw him he always had a big smile and was truly one of a kind.



I am so sorry for your loss and am thinking of you during this very difficult time.



Warmest regards,

Shane was my best friend and my life will not be the same without him. He was able to be so funny and so annoying at the same time and I loved him so much for it.
