Shane loved spending time with his kids and being a No. 1 dad. He enjoyed taking them to the park and to the movies. Shane loved music and fishing. He was an outgoing person with a big heart who was always willing to help anyone.

He had a great sense of humor that he loved to share with his family, whom he loved dearly. Shane was a great role model to his younger cousins, Anthony, Jacob and Zakkary. He was a hard worker, and loved being there for his parents, children, sister and nieces. He was especially close to his grandma, Betty, whom he loved dearly. He also will be missed by his lifelong friends, who were more like family and close to his heart, Eric, Annie (Mae Mae) and Jennifer (Fergie).
