  15. Shane came into my good friend Gerry’s life when she most needed him. He was a magic man who worked selflessly for his family, who by some miracle arrived, against all odds. I am grateful for knowing him but also for the love he could give to Gerry, who became the wonderful woman that she is today, in part because of the love and support he gave. Rest in peace, Shane. You will always be remembered fondly.

  22. We will all miss your quirky sense of humour and your positive can-do attitude. We will miss you superficial joking demeanor, but also your in-depth and heartfelt conversations and advice. You were a great friend, colleague and team-player with the greatest work-ethic in all aspects of your life – and that was evident on a daily basis at Caterers. Your friends and family are proud of you. Condolences to them. Love from the Hannans.
