"Shannon is magical. He has so much knowledge and absorbed information like he was still 17 in school. He is probably one of the most influential people in my life to date. He taught me so much about how to treat people and how to not give up on having a giving spirit and a good attitude. He had so much charisma and charm and knew how to win over the ladies. I love you Shannon. You helped me to be a better version of myself by showing me how to live life and enjoy the moments as I experience them. You taught me to be mindful, grateful, and present in the moment as I go through my journey here in this life. I want to draw closer to god and really dig deep and show how much you have inspired me to keep moving forward one foot in front of the other. Thanks for being an awesomw friend. Ill see you when I get there friend. Until then"
