I cant beleive your gone, it was like yesterday you were at my house and we left in your car to go the park. I miss you so much i can bearly take it. i cant stop crying and i see your smile when i close my eyes. this all feels like a bad dream, but i hope you put in a good word and open up the golden gates for me. I Love You so much and miss you so much more. You did everything for me, and was always there even when i didnt want you to be, but i loved EVERY minute i spent with you, you always made me smile even when i didnt want to and made me feel important again. I cant wait to see you and hold you again.
Carol Ann,
Im so sorry that this happend, you were everything to that boy, and He loved you more than anything in this world. When he talked to you on the phone, he just glowed. He is deffenatly a momma's Boy. I know me and you never really spent anytime together because shawn was always taking me out somewhere or i couldnt leave my house, but i hope that this will bring us closer together. I will take his place and help take care of you now when you need me. My Thoughts and prayers are with you. Lets help eachother get through this. I love you Also.
Love Always,
Joy Carol, I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Its hard to understand why the Lord would take such a young man, but we have to think he has something special in mind for him.
Hope to see you soon. Nina Jon and Jeanne, Carol and John, I am saddened by your loss. Although I did not know Shawn, I know the Sumner family well and know he must have been a fine person----there's just something about those Sumners that make everyone of them special. My prayers will be with you. I live in Montgomery City if there is anything I can do to help. Amy Worsham (Alan's mom) Ed & Carol,
I am so sorry to have read about your loss of your grandson. It was such a shock, when I saw the writing in the paper. I know how hard this is for all of you.
I wish I could be with you two, during this time, as you were here for me and my Family, when I lost my wonderful Father and I appreciated it so much. Tell Carol Ann, I am so sorry for her loss. She doesn't remember me, I'm sure, but I can remember, when Shawn was born, when we worked together. Take comfort in knowing that God didn't say it would be easy but said he is here for us, to help us get through it and we sure couldn't do so, without him. Just take joy in knowing that he is with God now and he will take care of him and will also take care of all of you. I will keep you in my prayers.

We have some great memories of our time together. We will cherish them always. We love you so very much and will carry your memory in our hearts forever. Grandma and Dan Carol Ann, Jon and Family, We are deeply sorry for your loss. We will always remember Shawn's smiles. Every time he came over to Ed & Carol family gatherings, his smiles were contagious. He was an easy going lad. PS..I still have one of my favorite photo of Shawn and Kyle dressing up in cowboys when they were little. We will never forget him. May God be with you and your family through the terrible times. With Love, Cheryl & Kyle Gilleland To his loved ones: I am very sorry for your loss of Shawn. Shawn was a student
in my class at South Callaway. Shawn definitely had the twinkle of life in his
eyes. He was always up to something. He was a student you couldn't help but
like. He talked often of his grandparents and their fishing trips. I talked Shawn
into being a track manager and really saw how bright he was. He didn't want
you to think it mattered to him but it did. He was very caring and considerate.
May God comfort you during this time. Remember the fun times! Mary Branum in

Kennth G Sumner Sr. I loved Shawn's smile, his quick wit, his energy, his natural intelligence, his
loyalty to friends, and the twinkle in his eye when mischief was afoot. Shawn
lived large during his short time with us, and he remains a great presence in our
hearts. He is sadly missed and fondly remembered by his teachers and
classmates at South Callaway Academy. With sympathy and respect to his
family, Mary Van Orden. Carol Ann and Family,
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. My Deepest Sympathy, Lori Anderson Shawn baby, every time I try to write it won't stay I need
your help baby. I love you and will never forget you.
shawn Michael you will always be my baby. you were very
special to britt and I. John found out he loves you too
without you are family will never be complete. Love always Your mommy I'll nver forget the time Carol Ann and I came to the old
house on Cote San Dessein and was a huge ruckus in the bathroom admist giggles and laughter. When I opened the door I found Shawn and a little red headed kid coverered in
mud. Somehow they had hauled two feet of mud from the creek and created a mud pit in the tub. I also rember those kids skateboarding off the roof. Shawn's brightness and intellegence always created a source for fund.
Love John Ehrhardt I Ed, Carol and family, I am so saddened by your loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

If tears could build a stairway,
and memories were a lane.
we would walk right up to heaven,
and bring him back again.
no farewell words were spoken
no time to say goodbye
he was gone before we knew it,
and only god knows why.
your hearts still aches in sadness,
and secret tears still flow,
what it meant to lose him,
only you will ever know.
but now you know he wants us,
to mourn for him no more,
to remember all the happy times,
life still has instore
since he will never be forgotton,
we pledge to him today,
a hollow place with in your hearts,
and forever more he will stay.

Its been almost 4 year's, since you been gone. I really really miss you. Life aint the same,
we're all still broken from this. Can you beleive this, Erika is turning 15 in about 2 months. She
growen into a sweet young lady. OMG Dillon he going to be 14 in about 2 months too. I love
that kid so much. but at the same time he breaks my heart cause he truning into his Big cuzo
Shawn in every way. He's even got that smile down that you did when you were up to no good
lol... But i love how we still hang on each other. In away i see them both as my little sister and
little brothers, instead of a older cousin. So you know i look out for them and try to help guide
them, when i can. Rory he is 5 now omg he is getting so big(he is the height and weight of a 8
year old)... And this hurts me so much he didnt get a longer chance to know you. but if you
show him a picture, he'll tell you its Shawn... When i can hear this song without crying ( Which I
do alot these days) Unlce Eric is going to teach me how to play "Tear's in Heaven". Grandma
and Dan are doing little bit better than me, but grandma she'll laugh or cry when we talk about
you. And i need you to understand when i come back to Missouri for visit, i want to go c u but it
hurt to much still. I cant do it yet. aND YES its been to long time since i've been on here. Oh
before i forget, I've passed the GED and now in COLLEGE.... But I might not go back to school
next semster so i can save more money to move back home... I better go to sleep its 1:07am
FL time.
I'll Love you always and forever *Brittany* 11-30-12 |
