Shawn last worked as a heavy machine operator at Western Illinois Metals and D & D Enterprises of Illinois in Colchester, IL.

Shawn loved hunting, fishing, heavy metal music and being outside, doing yard work. He also enjoyed tinkering with various things. He always found a use for something and was hesitant to throw things away because he would find a purpose for it. Most of all, Shawn loved his grandchildren and loved being a grandpa.
