Shenan was the first point of contact at the Asbury Plaza, where he worked happily and grateful for the last seventeen years as Doorman Supervisor. Shenan greeted everyone with a Big Smile. Shenan duties included scheduling, signing in and out packages, monitoring CCTV, and surveillance of the tenants’ lobby, driveway, parking areas, and elevators. The tenants loved him and considered him to be their extended family. He would look out for their children because he watched many of them grow up. Shenan loved to work; he was a workaholic. He worked for multiple companies, such as Old Republic, UPS, and New World Van Line, to name a few.
