She was a huge part of Shane’s life, even in recent years as friends, they were always drawn to each other.

Shane adored his Grandma. They shared a very special bond. Though Montana was a huge part of Shane’s childhood, he called Post Falls home.

He had a special connection with his niece and nephews and enjoyed visiting them as often as possible. His favorite thing to do was surprise them with a visit. 

Shane didn’t shy from hard work. He was always willing to lend a hand. He took pride in being a hard worker. He started at a young age in construction and quickly worked his way up to a foreman.
