In loving memory of my cousin Sean McMillen. I´m gonna miss you Sean, especially the unexpected phone calls when you were traveling. Save a space near you for me please! In the meantime, much love and hugs until we meet again! Cousin Joyce

Oh, Sean. I will cherish it all: our short-lived, early morning runs around NW to that paella in Manzanita. Thanks for the cuttings. I will plant a lot of things in your honor, I promise. Love you, and Hana.

Oh, the rare and vibrant spirit of Sean! We had a dance at ainsworth back in 8th grade (1981?) and the theme was punk rock. I didn´t have anything cool to wear.

She had access to everything Skunk, everything in his closet, everything punk. She had a (faux) safety pin through her cheek. It was brilliant!...

Sean, I´ll always remember your sweet spirit and wonderful heart. I´m glad we kept in touch.... Rest In Eternal Peace

Sean is surely missed as I talked to him frequently. I wish I could call him but it's extremely long distance.
