Tributes

Mary Beth Donnelly wrote on Feb 4, 2021:

"I apologize to all who left meaningful tributes to my son, Shawn. This wall was not meant to wage war but unfortunately someone decided it would be ok to do so. To throw insults and accusations to a mother that lost her child is inexcusable. Hopefully this person never has to experience the loss of her child."

"I was close with Shawn when he was in fargo for a short time. We made music together and to this day was one of the most talented writers I've ever had the pleasure of working with. He had a amazing flow and story telling ability. Shawn was always kind and warm to me and was always a joy to be in the presence of. He will be missed but not forgotten. "
