Shawn lost his short but very courageous battle with cancer early morning on Wednesday June 27, 2018 at Peterborough Regional Health Centre at the age of 52. Beloved son of Jo-Ann Whitten and predeceased by his father William Whitten. Brother of Dan and his wife Lynda, Kevin and his wife Irene and to Ryan and his wife Laura. Father of Kory, Shannon and Mackenzie. He will be sadly missed by his many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Shawn was able to spend his last few weeks exactly where he wanted to be; at the trailer, with a view of the lake, his boat and his longtime companion Summer.
Family and friends may gather at the Andrews Community Funeral Centre - 8190 Dixie Road, Brampton (North of Steeles Avenue) 905-456-8190, for a Celebration of Shawn’s Life on Tuesday July 3rd, 2018 from 5-8 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Lung Cancer Canada.
