Obituary
Shawn M Lafrenier
Shawn Lafrenier passed away on February 4, 2022 at the age of 37 in his Mobile, Alabama home after a long, heroic battle with Parkinson's disease.
He was born in Mobile County on December 8, 1984 to the late Nancy Lafrenier and Richard Lafrenier, and is survived by his daughter, Jessica Lafrenier, and son, Jordan Lafrenier; his sister, Ashley Lafrenier; his brother, George Lafrenier; as well as many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his brother, Richard Lafrenier.
Shawn retired in 2020 from the City of Mobile with 20 years of service that began in 2000 when he joined. During his many years with the Department he was driven to lead others and serve his community in many positions within the Department.
Not only was Shawn a community servant and leader, he was a devoted and family-oriented husband, father, brother, and life-long learner. All of his time outside of community service was spent fellowshipping with family or exploring the outdoors, from hunting and fishing. His desire to learn and seek all that life has to offer was seen through his interests in motorcycles and auto racing, teaching himself another language or to play the guitar, and fixing or building anything his family required. He was our hero and will be missed and cherished for always. Graveside services and interment will be held on Monday, February 10, 2022 at 2pm in Mobile Memorial Gardens Cemetery.
