ShanesWay was proud to help Elexa make a memorable trip to Disney World and Sea World
"I had a blast sitting down with Mike Mathis on Monday. I've tried to learn the guitar a couple times before. But it was either uninteresting chord exercises or friends trying to show me how to play a song way outside my reach. Mike blended the two, setting an easy-going and interesting environment. Not only do I get to learn the fundamentals, but also the music that drives me.
I don't think thank you even comes close to expressing how grateful I am for everything ShanesWay has done for me. I'm over the moon."
Thanks,
Nicole Garbutt
ABOUT US
The Shane Cattanach Memorial Foundation was begun out of necessity… a parent’s need to make sense out of the senseless.
We lost our oldest son, Shane Cattanach, on November 20, 2009, due to complications from asthma, a disease he had endured all his 27 years. Shane never let his asthma distract him from achieving his goals. He lived life to its fullest: earning 2 black belts by the time he was 14, skateboarding, hunting, fishing, mobbing his Chevy pickup, busing tables, bungee jumping, bartending, brewing beer, graduating with a BA in Finance, skydiving, surfing, running a ½ marathon, traveling, living in Ireland for a year, boxing, MMA training, visiting with friends and family, and living large! Our motto is the bio that Shane wrote about himself for his myspace.com page. It says it all. Our goal is to help other young adults who have life threatening illnesses to have a “Get it in while you can” moment.
