Shane,

We miss you so much yet we have so many beautiful memories to hold onto. We really loved your smile, your ability to make anybody laugh, your big tender heart, your understanding that love was the most important thing we can give each other. You were always so real in expressing your feelings and lived life the same.

You are at peace now, Our Precious Shane- no more physical pain, no more emotional hurts; God’s grace covers it all.

A memorial is being established in Shane’s memory for various non-profit organizations.
