parents Robert and Joan White. He attended Pennsville Elementary School
and graduated from Gateway Regional High School in New Jersey. He earned a B.S. in Business from Florida Atlantic University and went on to receive his MBA from Wilmington University.
Shayne, a devoted father, has two wonderful children, Alexandria
White, and Aiden White. His children are his everything; he loved
sharing every moment with them. Whether going to the beach, crabbing,
camping, or hiking in the mountains, he spent quality time with them
enjoying their time together.
Later in his life, he had the
pleasure of meeting Jane Krenitsky, who would become the love of his
life. They embarked on numerous adventures together, exploring different
parts of the world, enjoying a round of golf, attending concerts, and
wholeheartedly embracing each precious moment of their lives.

member of his family. Lilly was by his side until he passed away.
Shayne poured his heart and soul into his role as a dedicated business
teacher at South Plainfield School District, in New Jersey. His deep
