Shaun, our years of working together in the police at Campbelltown will never be forgotten. You were a great fella who was always up for a good laugh, hard work and backing up your colleagues. Both Paul and I cannot believe the devastating loss of you and what your family must be going through…many communities across NSW have certainly lost out since your passing, as we have not only lost a dedicated and devoted former NSW police officer but also a NSW Fire Brigade member. You were selfless in your devotion to serving many communities and keeping us all safe… Scano, your absence will be felt by many, especially the residents of Albury…our hearts go out to Michelle, Hannah and Connor.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you Michelle, Hannah, Kurt and Connor. Shaun brought a smile to the faces of so many. He was a dedicated and respected police officer, but more importantly, a genuine, caring and lovable bloke. Dubbed ‘High tower’ by many Cootamundra locals during his OSG duties, you will be sorely missed mate. On behalf of all those who were lucky enough to have worked by your side – you will not be forgotten.
