My heart goes out to all of the family and friends of Mr. Big Heart Shane! Although I have known him since I was a teenager, it was only recent that we got very close... He is at peace now. Keri and Shane will be a part of my heart forever. They are watching over us and until we meet again, I will strive to be the best I can...That's what they would want from all of us. Their spirits live in our hearts and we must share that. To the Larsons, Shane always spoke very highly of you. He was proud to be a part of a loving family. Please know that I am very near if you need anything. God Bless! And Much Love!!! Chrissy

there was only one shane larson! and even he would tell you that sometimes that was a good thing. i don't have a single memory from my teen years that doesn't involve him. i cannot put into words the emptiness i feel knowing he is gone. the world looks duller now. no matter where i go in life, i will never be able to fill the emptiness he left. no one will ever measure up to the bond we once shared.

Shane was my cousin and when we were younger we were partner and crime. We snuck out of Oma and Opa's house to steal golf balls, we got caught, we crossed the road when we were suppose to watch kim and lara, we got caught as they drove home. Shane me and you use to direct the plays that we put on oh and that was OUR play house!! There are so much more memories that I could go on about!! I Love You so much. I am so glad we got to spend a little time together at the beach in July!! I am going to miss you so so so very much, we related to each other!! I hope you are at peace!! I LOVE YOU, COUSIN JESSICA!!!!

Although I had only met Shane twice, I felt like I knew him forever. I know that he was a kind soul and my niece Keri loved him very much, as he did her. My condolences to the family as you go through this sad time. He will be missed by all that knew and loved him, and I hope that he & Keri are united again forever. May the Lord's peace and love bring joy to you in the coming days.

Shane and I were good friends back in the day in Kings Grant. I had lost touch with him over the years and am sad to hear that he has died. I remember Shane as a gentle soul with a quiet intelligence. I wish him and his family peace and love.

I am deeply saddened and truly sorry to have learned of the loss of another caring and loving soul. I can only hope that Shane is now at peace and together with his love, my daughter Keri and that they are both looking over us all and smiling. I sent this picture to Shane a few weeks ago with hopes that it would give him strength and memories to cherrish as I do. This is how I choose to remember them both, happy, in love and taking care of each other. I hope this will give you some strength and ease your pain if only for a moment.
