Shawn was a selfless person who always thought of others before himself. He faced his illness with a positive outlook and without complaint; he will continue to be an inspiration beyond his death. Shawn exhibited a wisdom beyond his years, and will be fondly remembered for his zest for life, his wonderful sense of humour, his patient nature, and his innate kindness. Though it is difficult to let him go, we know his suffering has ended, there is no more pain, and he is now in Heaven. A service to celebrate Shawn's life will be held on Saturday, March 15 at 10:30 a.m. at Calvary Temple, 400 Hargrave Street (Handicapped parking at rear). In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Transplant Manitoba - Gift of Life Program (Rm GE441-820 Sherbrook Street) or Siloam Mission. Special thanks to the staff of the Lung Transplant Program, and staff of H6, SICU, D4, A3, the Rehab Hospital and all the wonderful caregivers at Health Sciences Centre. We would also like to thank the ICU staff at University of Alberta Research Hospital in Edmonton. Forever loved and always in our hearts .
