Shane loved his family, friends, kids and the Lord. He enjoyed fishing, fast cars, listening to loud music and playing poker and pool. Shane had a heart of gold and never met a stranger. He cherished the moments with those he loved and was always ready to make new memories. He was very crafty with his hands and always ready to fix anything mechanical. Shane was always there when you needed him, especially in your time of need. He was very much loved and will be forever missed.
