Necromantic Aegis - I would assume that it also transfers the bonuses from passives to your minions as well as the base stats on the shield but cannot verify that 100% without testing or researching further on the forums. You might find the answer to that in the mechanics thread linked in the FAQ and elsewhere on the forums. Skill gems in your shield do no transfer to your minions via Necromantic Aegis although that would be rather awesome wouldn't it(hint hint hint GGG Devs!)?
This is not the case. You minions do not have your passives, and are not affected by them. They only get the stats that the shield grants.

Investing in passive skills that increase the benefits you get from a shield, and then a keystone that means you get no benefit from a shield, but something else without your passives does instead, is a sub-par build choice (but one you're free to take if you really want).
