    Shawn was a very special person one of the most genuine kindest loyal people anyone could have the pleasure to meet. I have never met any human being with as much integrity as Shawn. I will always have fond memories of times spent with Shawn and his beautiful wife Tia in Hawaii while they were stationed at the Marine Corps Air Station and our visits when I came in to Pittsburgh for work. Shawn will be greatly missed. You couldn't wish for a better friend. My condolences to Tia and his beautiful daughters. Please have solace in knowing that Shawn was loved and respected by all his Marine Corps friends. Semper Fi Shawn rest easy my friend
