RIP Sean. I knew you for a short time but could always count on a good laugh from you. You will be missed by many and I pray that your family will find peace knowing how many lives you touched in your short life here on Earth.
I think of you every time I see a lady bug and now I will laugh a little when I see one.
Rest in Peace until we meet again
