I
Said A Prayer For You Today

I
said a prayer for you today and
know
God must have heard –
I
felt the answer in my heart
although
He spoke no word..
I
didn’t ask for wealth or fame
I
knew you wouldn’t mind.
I
ask Him to send treasures
of
a far more lasting kind..
I
asked that He’d be near
you
at the start of each new day.
To
grant you health, blessings
and
friends to share your way.
I
ask for happiness for you
in
all things great and small,
but
it was for His loving care
I
prayed for most of all.
To
A Friend
Shawn
you now live with the Angels.
You've
left us with love and kindness.
By
God's grace we will remember that,
and
not let sorrow blind us.
All
words come and go only memories stay.
To
a friend hope to see you one day.

I love you very much Shawn. I
am sorry that you died. I think about you all the time.
I know you miss me too. Thank you for buying your tractor.
I love you.
Title
& Author Unknown
God
Looked around his garden,
and
he found an empty place.
He
then looked down upon this
earth,
and saw your tired face.
He
put His arms around you and
lifted
you to rest; God's garden
must
be beautiful He only takes the
best.
He knew that you were
suffering,
He knew that you were in
pain,
He knew that you would
never
get well on this earth again, so
He
closed your weary eyelids, and
whispered
"Peace by thine." It
broke
our hearts to lose you, but
you
did not go alone, for part of
us
went with you, the day God
called
you home.
Mom
and Tommy picked this to
give
out at Shawn's service.

Shawn
Duane Boone
By
Tammy Miser
They
keep asking me how I am,
He
was a great brother, uncle, son and man.
They
continue telling me he’s in no pain,
But
he’s still my little Shawn Duane.
They
say if I need anything-just call,
I
need my brother before I fall.
They
pronounce he’s with the Angels
and has God’s grace.
He
should be with us that’s really his place!
They
say he did not die alone, take comfort in that!
How
can I, where is he at?
They
say he was a good friend, always giving a hand.
I’m
fearful where my heart might land.
They
declare some good will come, it’s fate,
a
reason and that’s the way it’s to be.
There
is nothing momentous that I can see!
They
utter remember the good times you had.
I
miss him so very bad!
They
state he's with you mind, soul and heart.
I
can't bear being this far apart!
Shawn
Victim
remembered as likable, generous
By Rebecca S. Green

Shawn
Boone loved his farmhouse in rural Wabash County, his English
bulldog named Duchess and model trains.
He
was also the kind of guy who would give you the shirt off his back
if he thought you needed it, who would do anything to help you out,
family members and friends said Thursday.
"He
was an all-around nice guy," said brother-in-law Mark Miser,
38. "He'd give you anything, do anything for ya.' "
Boone,
33, died early Thursday in a Fort Wayne hospital from injuries
caused by an explosion at a Huntington wheel manufacturer. He
suffered burns over 90 percent of his body.
He
had worked in maintenance at Hayes Lemmerz International Inc. since
October 1999, officials said.
"He
was always the type of guy if you were throwing something away, he
would take it and fix it," Miser said.
Boone
wasn't married, but he had become like a "second dad" to
his two nieces and his nephew, Miser said.
He
was also working with his best friend, Dave Rockenbaugh, 35, to
build a Christmas present for Rockenbaugh's son.
Rockenbaugh
said Boone was finishing a degree from Ivy Tech State College in
Fort Wayne and enjoyed his work at Hayes Lemmerz and didn't worry
about it being dangerous.
Rockenbaugh
and Miser will miss Boone terribly, they said, and they are sure
those he worked with at the factory will also.
"I
think everybody at the factory (liked) Shawn," Miser said. He
got along with everybody."
