GWEN DAHL says
I was shocked when I learned of Shawn’s death! I had worked with him at Target for a few years and he was always so kind to me! He even offered to give me a ride home one winter night when the roads were really icy – and I live 5 miles out in the country! I was just flabbergasted that someone would make that offer – and he was serious about it:} I always enjoyed his friendliness and concern! My sincere sympathy to the family. Gwen Dahl
