Shawn Bennett Obituary, Death – Our much loved Shawn Bennett of Bashaw was suddenly snatched from this world on July 24, 2022, just over a month and a half after he turned 30 years old. The news of his passing comes as a source of profound sorrow for us, and we share it with you. His birthplace was the city of Saint John, which is located in the province of New Brunswick.
The birth of Shawn was a blessing from God that was bestowed upon Wanda and Clarence Brokopp, and shortly after his birth, Shawn was baptized in the name of the Lord. His brothers Donnie (Erin), Darris (Shelena), and Jodie (Kristine) Bennett, as well as Jodie (Kristine) Brokopp; his sisters Lisa (Dan) Duperon, Nicole (Darcy) Benoit, and Jackie (Robin) Holt; and his great Aunt Yvonne and Aunt Freida are among those who will miss Shawn after his passing.
In addition, he leaves behind 16 nieces, 5 nephews, and a large number of other relatives, all of whom retained a profound and unwavering regard for him throughout their lives. The family would like to take this opportunity to extend their heartfelt thanks to everyone who has been so generous to them, saying, “We are forever grateful and don’t know what we would do without you.”
During this difficult time, I would like to extend my gratitude to the staff members of the BC Coroner’s Service, the RCMP, Bashaw Victim Services, the community of Bashaw, and the Bashaw Funeral Home for the care and compassion they have shown to this family. I am thankful to you.
