The community of Dashwood is coming together to celebrate and mourn the life of Shaun Patrick Doyle, a man whose sudden passing has left a profound impact on his family and friends. Shaun, aged 37, died unexpectedly following an accident on his family farm on June 6, 2025. His wife Sabrina and their three young children—Deacon, Kye, and Kallie—are among those mourning the loss of a husband and father who embodied love, humility, and unwavering dedication.
Shaun’s life was a testament to quiet resilience and selfless devotion. Described as a simple man with a big heart, Shaun’s actions spoke louder than words. Whether it was through his tireless work at Andersons, his hands-on approach to home improvement, or his acts of kindness within his community, Shaun always sought to make life better for those around him. His natural talent as a handyman was evident in the personal touches he added to his family home—landscaping, building a playground for his children, and creating a warm, inviting space filled with love and character.
His children were the center of his universe. Shaun dreamed of a future where he could teach them life skills, fix up their toys, and share countless adventures. His playful spirit was evident in the toys he bought for his kids—three-wheelers, a golf cart, and a snowmobile—vehicles he envisioned teaching them to repair someday. His desire was not just to provide material things but to instill in them the values of hard work, perseverance, and love.
Shaun’s devotion extended beyond his family to his work and community. He approached his job at Andersons with the same commitment he showed at home—always striving to do his best and to support his loved ones. His presence brought warmth and character to his surroundings, and his absence leaves a void that will be felt deeply by all who knew him.
The funeral service will be held at Zion Lutheran Church in Dashwood on Thursday, June 12, 2025, at 11 a.m., with Rev. John E. Trembulak III officiating. The community is invited to pay their respects during the visitation at T. Harry Hoffman & Sons Funeral Home on June 11, from 2 to 4 p.m. and 6 to 9 p.m. Shaun’s final resting place will be Zion Lutheran Cemetery, where his memory will continue to inspire those he left behind.
Shaun Doyle’s life was a beautiful example of love expressed through quiet deeds, dedication to family, and a steadfast work ethic. Though his sudden departure leaves a void, the legacy of his kindness, humility, and love will endure in the hearts of family, friends, and the community he cherished. His memory will serve as a reminder of the power of quiet strength and the importance of cherishing every moment with those we hold dear.
