He had a way of making everyone feel comfortable and included in a group; even if it meant you (or he) might be the target of good natured teasing. Many of his friends can share stories of how Shawn touched their lives in a special way. Shawns infectious smile and laugh will be forever remembered in our hearts. Those we love don't go away. walk beside us every day. Unseen, unheard, but always near. Still loved, still missed and forever dear.
Shawn is preceded in death by his grandfathers, Dee Cobb, James Riley, and Rector Jim Brown and his grandmother, Peggy Riley.
Surviving are his grandmother, Frances Brown; mother, Meredith Riley; his father, Michael Riley; his sister Shannon Lenze (Eric); his nephews, James, Jack, and Rhys Lenze; his dear cousins, Wesley Keene (Stacy), Ginger Keene, Randa Windsor, Erica Hawthorne (Zachary), and Trey Keene; family friend Dave Dixon; and numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.
