Shawn was born November 29, 1974 to Mary Davis Terwilliger and the late Philip C. Terwilliger and his brother, Theodore “Ted” Terwilliger.

Shawn worked hard his whole life and loved Twig’s Excavating and working with his father who enjoyed showing him the tricks of the trade and telling him how to do things the “right” way. He graduated from Ithaca High School and earned a degree in autobody repair.  He was always proud of his accomplishments and would speak his mind. He was known by many and loved by most. He will truly be missed and loved forever in our hearts.

In addition to his father, Shawn is predeceased by his maternal grandparents, Rowland “Bow” and Pauline (Piney) Davis and his paternal grandparents, Bill and Grace Terwilliger.  He loved and cherished his wife, Andrea (Fairbank) Terwilliger and their children, Elliyanna, Sofia and Rowland and his dog, Rue, who will never forget how amazing he was.

Graveside services will be held at 10 am Friday, June 26, 2020 at Charles Mulks Cemetery, Route 79, Slaterville, NY with Pastor Cindy Schulte officiating.  In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to a charity of one’s choice.
