"I'm so sorry for your loss. Please accept my deepest sympathy. May you find comfort from your memories, as well as God's word the Bible. Why do people we love die? Romans 5:12 says: "That is why, just as through one man (Adam) sin entered into the world and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men because they had all sinned." How loving of God to promise what is found at Revelation 21:4 which says, "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore, the former things have passed away. "

"I am very sorry to hear of the loss of a great Person, Friend, Father and Son. We were very close for many years during high school and beyond. We worked together during high school at what was called Sunrise Rehabilitation Hospital. He was the nice guy at work among the clowns. He was always there for the people in his life. We lost touch many years ago, but I knew he would continue to be a good hearted man. There are a lot people who now have a little piece of their heart that will forever be missing because of this loss."

"I am truly sorry for your loss. I never had the opportunity to meet Shane, but from what has been shared, he was a very special person, son, and father. I can't imagine what you are feeling right now. I pray God gives you peace in knowledge of God's everlasting Love. You and Your family are in my prayers."

"Shane was so brilliant. There was not a subject that he did not know about. His knowledge of history, biology, politics, and human nature was astonishing. He lived his life in lightness, not darkness and always took a realistic but positive approach to situations. I watched him in awe the way he interacted with his precious son. What a great Dad. Shane you are a bright shining star that the lucky relatives and friends that were blessed enough to have you in our lives will be able to look up on starry nights and see you in the universe. We are left behind struggling to come to terms of your sudden departure and really don't know what to do. Rest , my dear cousin and look over us and bless us as we will all bless and pray for your untimely peaceful transition. I love you all."
