Shawn and Yuri met while working at Kal – Tire and have known each other for almost a decade. Shawn would describe himself as Yuri’s best friend and honorary brother with some of his fondest memories including rebuilding a severely hail damaged BMW, jamming out in the garage and learning new hobbies side by side. Shawn can always count on Yuri to bring some exciting or creative ideas to their exploits (ask him about the airbag story) and would be willing to get an additional matching tattoo (they already have one) to demonstrate their friendship. Shawn was present when Yuri and Abby first met and has been an ever-present figure in their lives as their relationship grew, a spectator of their love and loyal photographer.
