I’m so sorry. I just found out today about my friend, Shawn. He was a great guy and really good friend. I have known him for about 20 years. I met him when he was a maintenance boss at Marrowbone Development and I work for Walker Machinery. We both changed many jobs over the years but we always stayed in touch. I made a couple trips to his last job site in Ohio. The last time I spoke to him was a-little over a month back. He was asking when I was going to make a trip up so I could buy him dinner. I wish I would have made the trip up sooner. I’m truly going to miss my friend.
