MARSHALL — Services for Shawn Roberts, 52, of Marshall, are at 11 a.m. Thursday at Radiant Life Church in Marshall. Visitation will be from 4-8 p.m. Wednesday at Hamilton Funeral Home in Marshall. A prayer service is scheduled for 7 p.m. Visitation will continue one hour prior to the service Thursday at the church.

He died Saturday, Dec. 16, 2017, at the Avera McKennan Hospital in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Shawn Henry Roberts was born Oct. 17, 1965, in Marshall to Gary and Sylvia (Sanow) Roberts. He attended school in Marshall through high school, graduating with the class of 1985. He then went on to work in transport for Schwan’s and then he did yard maintenance for Flint Hills.

Shawn was known as many things to the many people that called him a friend. “Big Sexy,” “Big Guy,” “Edsel,” and “Serg” were just a few nicknames he gathered over the years. He was a long-time member of the Eagle’s Club in Marshall and enjoyed bowling, trying his luck at pull tabs, and cruising on the pontoon. He loved to make others laugh, particularly at the Round Table of Wisdom. Shawn was a good friend to many and will be truly missed.

Shawn is survived by his parents, Gary and Sylvia (Sanow) Roberts; brothers, Brian Roberts (Amy Perlenfein) of Marshall and Bradley (Gina) Roberts of Sioux Falls, S.D.; five nieces and nephews: Jayda Roberts of Richmond, Va., Chelsey (Joe) Robinson of Elk River, Melissa (Korey) Kesteloot of Marshall, Jerren (Erin) Roberts of Minneota and Jessa Roberts of Sioux Falls, S.D.; eight grandnieces and nephews: Chloe, Hayden, Noah, Mia, Owen, Avery, Zachary and Luke; and other relatives and friends.

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Frank and Fanna Sanow, and paternal grandparents, Henry and Emma Roberts.

Blessed be his memory.
