News like this is never easy, and my heart aches deeply for your loss, Sis Sherri, children, grandchildren, and family. Thank you, Pastor Shaw, for being a part of Shawn's and my wedding and for speaking life into us. I remember every time we would tell you we were having another baby, you would always laugh and be so encouraging—it meant a lot, truly. This is not goodbye, but the promise that we will see you again soon. Rest well. To the church family in Memphis, you are in my prayers, and I send love and hugs your way from the Most High. May He wipe your tears and be your peace and comfort.

Sending my sincerest condolences to Mrs. Sherri Burns and Family.

My very best friend, you kept all my secrets. You helped me in so many ways. I will never forget you. RIP until I see you again. I love you knucklehead.. we called each other that. Boy am I going to miss you. J

We offer our sincerest condolences to the entire Shaw family. We are so saddened by this Great loss. Though we only knew Pastor Shaw for a short period of time; his teaching, counseling, and faithfulness to the Most High left a strong impact on our lives. May God comfort and strengthen Mrs Shaw, the boys, and the entire family during their time of bereavement. He will truly be missed💔

Dearest Sheri, Kim, Ingrid, Lawrence and Josh, what an amazing and wonderful blessing and saint this world has lost. We will all see him again. My prayers are with each of you as well as my love. He consecrated himself to God, to family, friends and most of all to the Word of God. "Be still and know...". Jesus is coming soon. Lucy Shaw

Larry Shaw made a profound difference in my life. I remember meeting him at Olive Garden, where the very first thing he showed me was the Bible. We spoke almost every day about scripture; he had a way of explaining it so clearly that even a child could understand. He even taught me how to lose weight. Instead of taking me to a gym, he took me to the grocery store and showed me exactly which healthy alternatives to choose for the foods I loved. Whenever I tell people about my journey of coming back to the church, I always talk about how Larry opened up the Bible for me—from then on, it was history. Larry was a massive influence on my life. My deepest condolences go out to Sherry, Lawrence, and Josh. You are all in my prayers.

Sheri, My heartfelt condolences go out to you and the family. Hearing about Larry's passing has truly broken my heart. He and I met on our very first day at Lambuth College, and from that moment a bond was formed that I will always cherish. The memories we built together are treasures I will carry for the rest of my life. I'm praying that God surrounds you with His comfort, His strength, and His unfailing love as you walk through this painful season. May He hold you close and give you the peace that only He can provide.

Rest in peace, Shaw. Much love always.

May God's peace cover you all. Praying for the Shaw family. Jennifer Mickens-King
