About Shane
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.
Shane 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 in Redding, Los Angeles, San Diego and even Ireland, 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.
Thank you for your wonderful comments…Shane was a fantastic young man who lived life to the fullest and we hope we can help young adults to have a fantastic "Life Moment"!
Wow this is too surreal, I have just found out about the death of Shane. I lost my brother 2 months prior to Shanes death. I had just found him again on face book after leaving Central Valley over 10 years ago. He was a great friend and I can sure say this he will never be forgotten! I am still in shock but you all are doing an amazing this keeping him alive in spirit!!! God Bless You ALL!!
I think that its just hitting allot of us about what happened. I was in school with shane since way back. I was also in a Karate class with him (until the instructor flipped out on another instructor). Just want to say I am sorry for the loss and he was a real good guy.
i heard from my best friend a few minutes ago about shane..we all went to school together when we were kids..im so shocked and sad…but you are all doing an amazing thing!! my best wishes for the future!
