I have very fond memories of Mr Shea and his entertaining stories of his life. I always enjoyed working with him and he helped me personally when my father had health problems and underwent pacemaker/defibrillator implantation. He was a kind and gentle man and always spoke so fondly of his wife and family. I am very sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Erin Young, PT Gentiva Home Health
