Shawn Stanley Frye, age 35, of Contoocook passed away on Tuesday, November 15th surrounded with the love of family and close friends.
He was the son of Vicki (Nelson) Frye and the late Charles Frye.
Shawn worked for 15 years in the restaurant world working his way up the ladder to sous chef. He could blend flavors that would have your mouth watering from the aroma alone. The last couple years he worked for Contoocook Stoneworks and enjoyed the meticulous process of building stone walls as well as other stone work. One of his favorite past times was playing disc golf with his Sunday group of friends at their favorite NH courses as well as seeking out courses in other states. Shawn loved going to concerts, camping on the island, Kayaking, fishing, taking Reba for car rides, playing guitar, enjoying music old and new, snowboarding, and cooking his favorite dishes. Shawn especially enjoyed spending time with family and friends. He was a huge Star Trek fan and couldn't wait to discuss the latest episodes with his fellow Trekkies. He always had a special connection with kids.
In addition to his father, Shawn was predeceased by his maternal grandparents, Stanley and Evelyn Nelson and paternal grandfather Ellsworth Frye, and aunts, Nancy Faith Nelson and Katie Carrigan.
In addition to his mother, he is survived by his paternal grandmother, Mildred Frye; Aunts, Uncles, many cousins, a very large circle of friends, the Barnhart and Carrigan families.
Shawn will be remembered for his million-dollar smile that lit up a room, his kind heart and friendly nature.
