About	Tony Shin, died September 10th, 2014 @ 4:36am at age of 44. Next to him was his beloved wife Shehmai Shin holding his hand on his bedside. Who has been his "biggest cheerleader" as Tony would say through his illness. He was strong man with biggest heart who loved his 3 little birds, Olivia (8 years old), Sophie (6 years old) and Connor (3 years old) with his whole heart. Tony was fighting many illnesses that have taken over his life in last 9 months. But he did not want his sickness to define who he was. Many great friends and his family loved him, but most of all his wife, 2 daughters and his son loved him. They were everything to him and he meant the world to them. He was kind of father who loved changing his babies diapers and who enjoyed telling funny stories to his children. A kind of husband who always opened doors for his wife and who would make sure she is comfortable. Many would remember him as one of the smartest man they have met, a man many respected, a man who cared for others and a kind of man other friends and family members looked up to. As he spent his last few days with his wife by his bedside, he have told her many great stories of their life together and how sad he was to leave her and their 3 amazing kind hearted children. But he was joyful of the life he did have and found kind of love many searches for their whole life. Letters to my children: To Olivia, You give me strength. To Sophie, You make me laugh and feel the love. To Connor, You are the man in the family. I'm sorry, I did not get to walk you girls down the aisle on your wedding day. My son, I sorry I wasn't able to show you the kind of man you should grow up to be and live by example. Always in your heart, your Daddy. Tony's words to his wife: Live your life, happy with our children. Show them the world as we have planned. Have people you love and who makes you happy around you and our children. Leave behind those who hurt and those who do not matter. I believe in you. Always in your heart, your Tony. Tony's Memoriam Service was held September 14, 2014.
