Unexpected Tragic Loss of Shaun

My brother died on August 27, 2022. He was 31.

A heart attack or an aneurysm, not sure yet, but neither should have happened. He was waiting in the car while my mom ran into the store, only to come out and find him blue in the face and already gone.

My big brother was too good for this world. The sweetest, most kind, gentle-spirited, smart, creative, funny, exceptional human being I could have hoped to spend my childhood with.

He loved animals, nature, people, art. He worked at a pet store- he cared so much for each living thing he crossed paths with. He never had a bad thing to say about anybody. I know he longed for belonging and acceptance, though this cruel world seemed to offer him little.

This devastating loss comes as a complete surprise to our family and we are ill-prepared for this complicated process. Please give as you can, everything helps. I extend my family's deepest gratitude in advance.
