Shaaawn. Don't think that I forgot about our tattoo date! You promised that you would hold my hand. I can't wait. (: ha remember when we started dating and you would walk up to Mellon Plan everyday to hang out. We both were so shy, haha. Then our friends made us kiss so they could get a picture! I remember making it my profile picture on MySpace. Awe. (: We were young, and so reckless. I remember finally getting back in contact with you and we talked 24/7 for months about anything and everything. You're so easy to talk to. I'm glad I always will have you there for me. We always laughed about how badass we thought we were. I hope you like the picture of Chad and you I edited.  I love my badass angel so much. See you soooon. <3

I remember always running in and saying brudderrr and you would say sista. You were the one who always made me happy. "aw sista you look so pretty or you look so nice" im gonna miss so much. you are truely my angel and i love you. You would always rub your head next to tom kittys and say" hey sis member when tom kitty bit my ear" and you would try to make him bite your ear. Or I would come home from being out all night creep up the stairs and say " can you smoke with meee" and your reply would be"ahh fuck it". i miss venting to you i miss fighting and i miss reminiscing with you of our memories. I never truely shared a stronger bond with anyone but you baby bro. My best friend is gone and a big chunk of me will always be missing:/

My lil' Shawn.Where ever you are,I know you know we love you. Not just Archie and Tatty's friend, but one of MY kids.I will forever remember you on my back porch, in my house,and in my heart. A part of me is gone with you,but only to remain watching over you. I love you like a son and you will forever be missed.Rest in peace Shawn. We'll see you on the other side.

You were ready to take on the world, Ready to do it all. But God decided he needed you, So from this world you left, But you took a piece of all of us, Our hearts are what you kept.Your seat is now empty, And it’s hard not to see your face,But please always know this, No one will ever take your place.

All I know is that Shawn Paul was a young man who had a passion for "LIFE".


He shows us this by his albums of pictures. His memories that he left for us to see, to enjoy. There are but a few passions:


Life and it's Beauty


Family/Friends


Pittsburgh PA


I can't say I've ever known someone Shawn's age that enjoyed God's creation. His photograpy show us alot of pictures of changes that goes on in the sky close to heaven, close to where Shawn is with his maker. He loved brooks of flowing water, and old trails that many of you walked with him. But wea ll know where his heart lied, and that was in his hometown, Pittsburgh, PA.


We all have the ability to communicate with our friend everytime we look through Shawn's eyes at the Beauty that lies right around us. I believe Shawns message is to not forget to look right where your at for what you might be looking for, as you just might miss the most beautiful things in life.
