COLCHESTER – Shane Ryan James Mullen, age 32, passed away on June 12, 2022 at his home in Colchester.

Shane graduated from Missisquoi Valley Union High School in 2007, and continued his education at Champlain College, earning a degree in Information Technology. He worked for the family business, Mullen Insurance Agency as the I.T. Specialist. Shane was a “gentle giant” and took great pride in being Uncle Shane to his nieces and nephews who we adored. He was an avid body builder, winning the Vermont Amateur Body Building Championship. Shane had a passion for fast automobiles, motorcycles, and had a reputation for blowing engines and blowing up cars. He loved gathering with family, camping at Lake Carmi, swimming, Tae Kwon Do, and being a great “Little Brother” to his three sisters.

He is survived by his father, James A.
