Colleagues honor Web b in Relay for Life
Mona Hill

Shawn Webb was just that
kind of guy. That's the con-
sensus o.f three sheriff's
office dispatchers Zoe
Stancer, Rene McKinney
and Casey Cooper -- and,
apparently, of his fellow
law enforcement officers.
The trio has formed a
new Relay for Life team,
"Shawn Rocks On," to hon-
or Shawn Webb, who died
in February from brain
cancer. The team name
comes from a benefit the
trio organized when Webb
was ill: "Because Shawn
Rocks."
It all started when Pam
Johnson dropped.a flyer in
the dispatchers' in-box.
Despite starting their
fundraising efforts late, the
women remain confident
-- they're dispatchers who
remain calm under pres-
sure.
As soon as deputies
learned of the effort, they
signed on, even the hard-
core holdouts, saying,
"Well, if it's for Shawn ..."
a first for the far-flung
department.
The team has grown to
13 official members and an-
other dozen or so
"helpers." The team goal is
$2,500, of which individual
members pledge $100 each.
The team's first fundrais-
ing event is Saturday, May
28, which is, a combined car
wash, bake sale and yard
sale at the sheriff's office,
1400 E. Main St. in Quincy.
Other events are
planned, including an on-
site fundraiser during the
relay. For a fee, attendees
can play "Rock Band" and
"JusrDance," two of
Webb's favorite video
games.
Wife Chrissy Webb said,
"Shawn h aAa vibrant per.
sonality .... goofy and fun to
be armihd."
It was harder for Stancer
to say what it was about
Webb that made her get in-
volved she got a little
weepy.
McKinney jumped in
with a story about when
Webb was new to the de-
partment. At the time McK-
inney was eight months
pregnant and, by her own
account, crabby. She said
Webb would appear at the
door during the late night
with treats, silently hold-
ing them out, then wishing
her a good night.
She said, "He made
everyone feel like they
were his best friend."
That got Stancer started
on the Kenny Chesney tick-
ets. Stancer knew Chesney
was playing at Tahoe and
"a bunch of us decided to
get tickets."
Somebody got started
writing letters and ended
up with two backstage
passes for Chrissy and
Shawn. Chrissy gave her
ticket to Stancer so it was
she and Shawn who went
backstage to meet Chesney.
They all laughed about
the Christmas caroling in
Meadow Valley. It seems
Webb pulled a trailer
around the community in
the rain while several peo-
ple on the hay-stacked
trailer sang traditional
Christmas carols. After
several hours, they all
went to have cocoa and
soup.
Cooper said their efforts
were because of Webb; all
agreed he inspired them to
do this.
Cooper has lost two fami-
ly members to cancer and a
third was recently diag-
nosed with brain cancer.
Chrissy Webb said, "Can-
cer is part of everyone's
lives, it touches everyone."
Stancer chimed in with,
"If Shawn were here, he'd
do it." The others agreed,
spontaneously quoting
something Webb must have
said often: "Let's just do it;
what's the problem?"
For the first time, the Plumas County Sheriff's ,Office is fielding a Relay fol
Shown Rock On," in honor of Deputy Shawn Webb who died of brain cancer
