Remembering Shane Irwin: A Heartfelt Tribute
The family and friends of 18-year-old Shane Irwin are remembering the life he lived.
His mom, Lynn, tells KSAT that he loved motorcycles and his friends. Dozens of people set off on a motorcycle ride from Bass Pro Shop at The Rim to the neighborhood where Shane and his friends hung out and loved to ride.
Irwin died in a tragic motorcycle crash on Aug. 1. According to police, Irwin crashed his motorcycle into a blue sedan.
“Losing him was devastating, but his friends have been amazing,” Shane’s mom, Lynn Irwin, said. “They organized this ride today. They put up a memorial. They’ve been by my side since it happened.”
“We just thought we’d put something together for him, as a tribute to the remarkable person he was because we love him,” Shane’s friend expressed.
Shane’s mom and friends share that they want him to be remembered as the “adventurous, caring, and fun” friend he was.
The air was filled with shouts of “I love you Shane” throughout the entire celebration, remembering the impact he had on everyone he touched.
