Shawn may you rest in peace! I can’t believe you are no longer with us. The night you died I mentioned your name at the same exact time. You will be missed.
Shawn and I spent 8 yrs together and had two beautiful children. We worked together and had fun together and we still remained close friends even after we broke up. He taught me how to work on cars and many other things also. I’m glad I got to be apart of his funeral and to help make sure the things he wanted got included. You will never leave me, because Everytime I look In your kids faces. I will see you. And forever Ill have the “Carlson” you tattooed on my back for the passing of your cousins. You are forever in my heart and I love you my bd….
