Vanita and family our thoughts and prayers goes out to you all
Grew up with Shawn and prayed many times with him. We did life together in ministry and shared many good times. His journey was, as anyone can attest, filled with joy. A solid believer in Jesus Christ, and a testimony to His sacrifice in both word and deed. His joy and passion will be missed and hard to replicate. We look forward to the everlasting with him, in eternity one day.
I’m so sorry to hear of Shawn’s passing. He was a classmate and friend. He was always so kind and caring every time we came back to MV to visit. My condolences to his family.
Anita and family,

If you ever want to talk please feel free to call me anytime. I will keep you in my prayers old friend.
Sincere Condolences,
Pam Danker
