Colin Shawn O’Neil, age 41, passed away peacefully June 25, 2020, surrounded by his family. He was born July 17, 1978, in Manchester, New Hampshire to Shawn and Christine O’Neil. Colin was a lifelong sports fanatic of everything from corn hole to basketball, with an extremely competitive spirit whether as a player, coach, or spectator. He had an unforgettable sense of humor and deep love for music. Above all else Colin was an amazing father who loved his children more than anything in the world. He taught them to never let the words “I love you” go unsaid, and that it’s ok to make mistakes. They will carry those lessons with them forever.
Colin is predeceased by his father, Shawn O’Neil, and his grandmother Celia O’Neil, and survived by his two children, Carlee O’Neil and Shawn O’Neil; his mother, Christine O’Neil; his sister Caitlin O’Neil; his brother Corey O’Neil and his brother’s wife Candice; his grandfather, Denis O’Neil; his former wife, Lauren O’Neil; several nephews and his niece; and the many aunts, uncles, and cousins who loved and adored him. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions to Carlee and Shawn’s college education may be made to a memorial fund established for his two children: Click Here.
A graveside service will take place at the convenience of the family.
