Shane Harleigh Saunders

Shane Harleigh Saunders, born December 19th, 1975, was a caring old soul who loved fiercely, and did not intimidate easily. Shane was meticulous and patient and wanted others to learn the art of taking time to do things the right way…Never Rush.

Shane spent the last 15 years in a loving relationship with Heddy and her two children, DeMaris and Trevor, whom he tried to guide down the right path in life.

Shane was preceded in death by his father, Seth Jr. Saunders.

He is survived by his mother, Terese Saunders; sisters, Angelique (David), Sabrina (Victor), and Cherene; brothers, Seth III (Tara) and Trehern; and girlfriend, Heddy. Shane also leaves behind 12 nieces and nephews, Jamie, Jordan, Jodi, Avaree, Seth 4th, Braxus, Gwen, Cece, Mari, Juli, Darius, and Russell.

The last months of his life he spent in the comfort of home with his sister, Sabrina, and girlfriend, Heddy, caring for him, along with countless visits from friends….you know who you are, and family members.

Shane had a lasting impact on the lives he touched and will never be forgotten. We miss you deeply and won’t ever let your flame be extinguished.

A celebration of the life you shared and left way too soon will be held on Sunday, November 1st at 2pm at home in Crystal, MN.
