Shawn Keith Payne, 64, of Easley, South Carolina, went home to be with his Lord and Savior on Friday, January 5, 2024.
He was born on October 6, 1959, in Anderson, South Carolina, the son of the late O’Dell Eugene and Caroline Suttles Payne. Shawn was known for his hardworking nature, dry sense of humor, generous heart, and sometimes stubborn nature. In his early years, Shawn worked alongside his father at Payne's Cabinet Shop. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for craftsmanship, he mastered the art of cabinet making. As a young man, Shawn expanded his skill set and became a certified welder. Alongside his cousin, Tony Bradberry, Shawn formed an unbreakable bond that resembled that of brothers from their earliest memories as toddlers to the present day. Their kinship was evident to all who knew them.
He attended Jones Avenue Baptist Church.
Shawn is survived by a daughter, Cassie Cheyenne Payne; his two sisters, Dell Marie Holcombe, and Yvonne Eugenia Payne; a nephew, Mark Holcombe; a niece, Heather Johnson; a great-niece, Cosette McCullough; and several cousins whom he loved dearly.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
