I will always remember Shanty for the joy he brought and kindness. I met him from Kathy through tennis, but he was great friends with my parents. He will be dearly missed and my prayers go out to his family at this difficult transition. God Bless!🙏🏻

Shanty left a great legacy to Deming and Luna County. Always loved seeing him around town and especially at church on Sunday morning.

Shanty was one of the nicest guys I've ever known. Always had a smile and a kind word. So sorry for your loss.
