In a post of his own, Shane wrote, “My favorite place was always on your shoulders. It makes me smile knowing McCoy will be there with you; right there on your shoulders.

In an Instagram story, Shane wrote, “I’ll always remember the smile, velcro shoes, clothing with more pockets than necessary, and a life many could only dream of. And of course the mustache.”
