We received the news that our good Friend Shane passed away last week so we drove out for his Celebration of life ceremony in Bend, OR. Trevor has know Shane since he was 6 months old and Shane passed away 16 days before his 19th birthday. He was fighting cancer for the last three years and lived his life to the fullest. He did more in his 18 years than most people do in their lifetimes. He was a true gift to those around him. We were constantly amazed by his passion for life and for his example to everyone. He went through many surgeries including the amputation of his leg and still was strong and happy. He truly will be missed. His final request was to donate his body to OHSU to help with Cancer research. What an amazing kid!!!
This picture is of his family and us at the celebration.
We were lucky enough to time it just right for Maddie's birthday!
Maddie and her dad Kelly. We sure liked him he is a great guy!

Maddie and Mackenna were Thing 1 and Thing 2. Their mom. Loritta worked super hard to get them all ready but it was worth it! We sure enjoyed the time with Family and friends on the trip.
