Sean always put a smile on my face. His infectious smile and loving spirit will never be forgotten. There was never a dull moment or lack of laughter when Sean was present. I couldn’t have asked for a better Friend/Brother for Will. I already miss our talks and the sound of your voice. Sean was and will always be family and greatly loved and missed by us all. My condolences to his family and everyone that loved him.
