Shawn Ellingburg was a kind-hearted and compassionate individual with a heart of gold. His infectious sense of humor and radiant smile left a lasting impression on everyone he met. He was a jack of all trades, always following through on his commitments. Shawn loved his children, family and friends, making an effort to check on them and never forgetting a birthday.
