Donne's obituary

Donne Scott Shaw

February 22, 1971 - November 13, 2022

With a mix of sorrow and reflection, we announce the passing of Donne Scott Shaw on November 13, 2022. Born to Douglas McClain Shaw and Marcy Dee Shaw on February 22, 1971, in Miami, Florida, Donne's life was marked by a unique blend of personal and professional achievements.

Throughout his career as an IT administrator, Donne made significant contributions to several notable companies, including Monsanto, Mastercard, and Deloitte. A commitment to excellence and innovation in the field distinguished his professional life.

Donne's passion for Broadway musicals and comic books, especially Sandman, was a source of joy and escapism. He was known for his deep appreciation of storytelling and art, finding solace and inspiration in the pages of his favorite works.

One of Donne's notable traits was his dedication to rekindling and maintaining connections. He placed great value on reaching out to distant relatives and childhood friends, believing in the importance of sustaining relationships across time and distance.

As we remember Donne, we acknowledge the complexity of his life and relationships. His journey was not without its challenges, and while not everyone experienced the same version of Donne, his efforts to connect and his professional legacy remain parts of his story worth noting.

In honoring his memory, we reflect on the entirety of his life's journey — the achievements, the passions, and the challenges. Donne's story serves as a reminder of the multifaceted nature of human experiences.

The Shaw family invites you to join us for a memorial service to celebrate Donne Scott Shaw. We will be reflecting on his life and the joy he brought us on September 14, 2024, from 2 pm to 5 pm at the Quarterpath Park Rec Center, 202 Quarterpath Rd, Williamsburg, VA 23185. An RSVP is not necessary but will help us plan. All responses and questions can be directed to DSShawMemorial@att.net.

We acknowledge and respect that there will be people from differing political views, and we respectfully ask everyone to remember why we are gathering and focus on Donne.
