Dear Shawn and Family, Although I did not know your beloved son, you have my deepest sympathy. You were one of my all time favorite students, so my heart is aching for you. No parent should ever experience the loss of a child, but some do. I can only hope that you know that God needed your angel to become His angel. I'm praying for your family as you try to cope with this. Love, Mrs. Snyder
