I met Shannon about 10 years ago. He became a vender at my flea market, we shared similar interests in knives, and funky art. Over the years we became friends and was able to hire Shannon from time to time to help clear out estates. Shannon was the hardest working guy I’ve ever employed. He was smart and able to figure out problems and create solutions. Shannon was very skilled in electronics and could fix just about anything once he figured it out. His skills at packing a trailer were nothing short of genius, he could arrange and pack more volume on a trailer than anyone I’ve ever met, I could always be assured that if Shannon packed and tied down the trailer loads we would never have a problem. Shannon was also artistic and created some very unique pieces. The best times with Shannon were just sitting around talking about life and the crazy world we live in. Shannon was an encyclopedia of knowledge and history, that’s what I’ll miss the most about him, the in-depth deep conversations. Many times I witnessed Shannon give his last $5 to a needy stranger. He not only would give you the shirt off his back, he was the kinda guy that would give you his pants, shoes, and socks too. He will be greatly missed but never forgotten. Hope your at peace now buddy, that monkey is finally off your back.
