Shawn Lynn Bachelor

He was born on November 22, 1977 in Coldwater, Michigan to Stephen and Lynda (Holden) Bachelor.

He graduated from Prairie Heights High School in 1996.

Shawn married Jaclyn Didier on May 20, 2000 in Angola, Indiana.

He was owner of Bachelor Livestock, LLC, starting the business in 2003. He was also owner and operator with his brother, Cory Bachelor of Bachelor Grain. He was active his entire life with the family farm where they owned and raised Jersey cattle at Bachelor Farms.

Shawn was a hard worker who loved his family dearly. They were his pride and joy. Shawn not only loved his family, but his unique circle of friends. He had an unbelievable bond with his friends and he cherished each of them. Shawn had a strong passion for horses and basketball. He loved to rope with his sons and group of rodeo friends so much that he built his own arena for all to enjoy. However, when basketball season started, he would be right there watching each game standing from the sidelines with his arms crossed waiting to put his two cents in.

Survivors include his wife, Jackie Bachelor of Orland, Indiana, children, Layne Bachelor a Senior at Purdue University, Morgan Bachelor a Junior at Purdue University, and Chase Bachelor a Senior at Prairie Heights High School, mother, Lynda Bachelor of Angola, Indiana, brothers, Cory (Stacy) Bachelor of Orland, Indiana, and Curt (Jen) Bachelor of Angola, Indiana, mother and father in-law, Doug and Cheryl Johnson of Angola, Indiana, brothers and sister in law, Jeff and Joann Parrot of Fort Wayne, Indiana, Jeremy Didier of Columbia City, Indiana, Jon Alan Didier, and many nieces and nephews, and great-nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his father, Stephen Bachelor, and grandparents, Keith and Lila Holden, and Max and June Bachelor.

We take comfort in knowing that Shawn is with his father, Steve, in heaven waiting for each ball game to start this season.
