  1. The world lost a great man when you passed, Sean.

    I believe someone said, “you had poetry in your soul”. Nothing could describe my memories of you better.

    I still have the fake newspapers, songs and games we made up when we were kids. Those were good times that I’ll remember forever.

    It’s hard to even believe you’re gone, as are so many others.

    May you rest in peace, and God bless your family.

  2. My heart goes out for all those who were touched by Sean and his gentle soul….his family and his friends and those who hardly knew him, but met him and just knew he was a nice guy. Rest in peace Sean. May your soul find gladness, peace and joy that surpasses all you have given.
