I met Shane 30 years ago when he started work at Rainbow Neon, manufacturing signs, He was an extremely talented metal worker that strove for perfection in ever sign he built. His legacy will span decades to come through out the Wasatch Front in the form of hundreds and hundreds of signs. He was part of the Family around here and touched many lives. May every fish you hook from now on be your biggest!

Shane was such a friendly, warm and generous man. We loved when he would come in to buy steel from us because he was always so upbeat. We will all miss him.

Shane was a great neighbor, a good friend, a fellow scout "lifer", and an all-round great guy. The neighborhood was certainly blessed for having him around. I promise to go flick some arrows in the hills in his memory.

My heart hurts at this great loss to Melissa and Renee and Alex and to our family. We love Shane as though he has always been part of our family. Nearly five years of holidays, birthday parties, dinners, and activities. He was already like a son-in-law to me and he always will be. You will be missed! Until we meet again on the other side of the veil, Shane!Love,Darlene
