While there, he met and married his wife Veronica in 2000; they celebrated their 22nd anniversary in March 2022. Together they enjoyed traveling, bowling, billiards and playing games with their friends. Their military adventures took them to RAF Lakenheath, England, where they spent seven years traveling Europe. In 2009 they moved to Mountain Home AFB, Idaho. Shawn went on multiple deployments to the Middle East and was honorably retired from active duty in December 2015. After retirement, Shawn continued to bowl in leagues and tournaments. He was an enthusiastic video game player, Star Wars Lego set builder and dedicated pet parent to several cats and dogs.
