He was always there to support his family and friends with his wisdom and good humor and if you were his friend, it was for life.

He enjoyed the wildlife sounds of what he called the Tennessee symphony during the summer twilight hour. Shawn also enjoyed an eclectic selection of rock and roll, country and pop music, both old and new.
