Despite his physical aliments and handicaps, Shawn was the most positive person I've ever seen. Surely he was the most positive member here.

I hope you're running free now, Boog.

Had many conversations and trades with Boog over the years. Like others have said, guy dealt with a lot but was still a cheerful guy to be around. He will be missed.

my heart sank when i saw the title of this thread. i really didn't know you shawn, but remember selling you some stuff before and all i can do is echo what everyone else is saying, you were a really a nice guy. man that makes me sad. i'm happy he had a hobby he really enjoyed and a lot of us got to share that with him.

This one really hurts. I talked to boog quite a bit a few years back during and after some trades. He was a great guy who took everything that was thrown at him with grace.

RIP Shawn. :crying:

Rip to a truly nice guy. I used to feel like a sucker for donating money to get him a psp but I hope it brought him some fun

I spoke to Kitkit since he went down to see Shawn several times to bring him games. We're going to try and get in touch with his family to see if local friends are allowed to attend the funeral. The last time I messaged Shawn on FB was only a few days ago with no response :(

IMPORTANT UPDATE

Kit and I will try our best to attend the funeral as soon as arrangements are announced. We will come up with a flower arrangement or other gift appropriate for the occasion. I intend on preparing a personal letter to his family and can also present a card from the community along with the flowers to be displayed at the wake. I can pick out an appropriate card and enclose a list of people contributing their wishes. If you'd like your name to be mentioned on the card, please PM and let me know how you'd like your name displayed: forum username only, real name (include it please), or just first name last initial, whatever you're comfortable with. Obviously I know a lot of you guys and your real names, but I don't want to throw you in randomly without your permission.

Sincerely,

Mikhail

Boog was a good dude. Always super happy, despite the hand he had been dealt. Sad to see this. My thoughts are with his family.

I tried giving him a call once simply to see if his speaking style matched his writing style. He cracked me up, wish I had the opportunity to speak to him before his transition...........take it easy.

Very sad to hear this, but from what I understand, Boog was in a lot of pain. RIP buddy.

R.I.P.

This really came out of nowhere. I knew he was disabled/sick, but didn't think anything was imminent due to his regular posting. He'll be missed.
