It is odd how 20 yrs. have passed and your smile and memories of you have not faded at all. The imprint you left on this earth was very strong. You were one of the most amazing kids ever and I can only imagine the man you would be. Taken way too soon! Please continue to watch over your family. You were the glue. Love you kiddo! Then, now and forever.

My dear son Sean, I miss you every minute of everyday. I love you so and will be with you again someday. Your family loves you. I miss your smile and all the love you gave your family. You were always all about your family and fought hard to be with us. Love you forever, your Mom

Ryan! This gave me chills. You're right, I would read it!!!! I agree, it is hard to find the perfect tattoo to display your time together and what it meant to you. The time you had with him was so special it's almost impossible. BUT this is absolutely Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!
I can't wait to see the finished product I am immensely proud of the man you have become and I truly mean that.The pain we all have endured is pain that people in our lives now will never completely understand because they weren't in our lives at that time. Now your tattoo will display the love you have for Sean for you look at and smile looking at it every day, knowing he's looking down at you with a big Sean grin. You know the grin....my son Taylor is 14 and has the same grin. I truly mean that, I'm so proud of you. When I visit Florida sometime we have to get together. I have a dolphin tattoo in remembrance of Sean and I love talking to people about it when they ask me. You will enjoy it too, it's nice talking about him since he was so damn amazing. You truly made my day! Send pics after! Love u!!

My dear Ryan, what a beautiful tribute to my Sean. What a thoughtful and loving message for my boy. I am so proud of you as Sean is. He is always watching over you. Sean always loved you, such a great friend he had in you, the very best. I think of you often and love you Ryan!

My dearest Sean, I start these thoughts of you with the greatest love a Mother can have for her child. I miss you every minute of every day, 14 years since you joined our Lord. I know you are my angel and will always be with me. You will be with me until I join you in heaven with our Lord. Your entire family as well as your sweet friends miss you so much and we all keep your memory alive. I still think daily what would Sean think, what would Sean do? You taught all of us so much about life in your short 14 years, you still guide me in my daily life, I talk to you every day. I always feel you protect your mom still as you did as man of our house. I love you with all my heart and believe deeply I will be with you again someday which will be a glorious reunion!! With all my love, your Mom

I can't believe 11 years have passed. I still picture you wanting to go out on the water! Who would have thought so many people would have survived this for so many years? Your still alive in our hearts! But your smile, your personality, your kindness- your physical presence is missed so much!

I know you are in a good place and can feel you around sometimes, please stay close. It's hard to believe through all the changes in my life I've somehow survived without you.

He will always be your wonderful,dear friend. Beautiful, loving memories of you, Ryan and Jason together. They are forever ingrained in my mind--I think of them often. Your loved ones treasure every minute we had with you and I know I will be reunited with my son some day. You are with me every minute of the day, I think of you all the time.

Hey Sean, i posted a comment on here a week ago and i wanted to make sure it went online and it didnt. :( so i guess i leave you another one. just wanted to let you know its been almost five years now and i am surprised at how much i still care and think about you. wanna hear a dumb idea of mine, i have been thinking for about 6 months now to get a tattoo that reads S.Fesl on my left chest plate (above my heart), in beautiful cursive. i have not gotten any and nor do i want any but that would mean a lot to me, i wouldn't be doing it for anyone but myself tho. i dont want to get it to show it off. i want to get it so i will always remember.

Sean, There are no words to explain the void on earth without you. I always think of you when I see a dolphin, talk to a child and remember you so wise beyond your years, certain things in/around the water. Sometimes I just want to talk to you about stuff. You were such a listener- and still are! Then, when I think of you, I think of your family. Continue to watch them and protect them Sean. Love ya little buddy~

I can't help but miss you so much, you are still such a big part of my life. I miss hearing your voice and having you here, a sense of comfort in this crazy, unpredictable world. I wish you were here to make it more stable and to feel less alone but I know you are watching over me, cheering me on no matter what happens. You are the best brother I could ask for, and my best friend, I miss you every day. Love your sister, Christine

Hey Sean!
I'm at college now, and the sorority I want to join works with the Make-A-Wish foundation! We saw a slide show of kids they've helped, and someone else met the President just like you did! I hope I get a bid from that house so I can help the MAW grant more wishes! :D
I miss you!

Not a day goes by that I don't think about you...you are so deeply missed. You'll always be in my heart. You did more for me than you could ever know...I hope in my life I can be even just a little bit like you.
I love you & miss you so much!

Hey Seany.
It's time for Relay for Life again, and so of course you're in my thoughts more than usual. I do this for you, Sean. Your dad sent me a picture of you and the first message I ever wrote to you almost 4 years ago and I froze. I hadn't seen your face in so long and I was shocked to see it. When I read what I'd written I almost started crying. I remember your dad reading it at the funeral and I first started laughing at the truth in my words, then cried because I missed you even though we were never all that close. I'm bringing your picture with me to college so I can find a Relay there to participate in. :) Miss you.
Christine Bauer

Hi buddy- just a quick note to tell you how much I love you, I think about you every day and you will always remain in my heart. Keep an eye out on your nephew, I see a lot of you in him everyday, through those piercing blue eyes you both have. I'd do anything to see you holding him. Can't wait to see you again, one day, then we'll be together forever! Love you brother.

Thank you to all of Sean's and my friends for remembering Sean during the holidays and over his birthday. You all keep his memory alive, I know you will never forget him. He loved his family and friends so much. And that is Sean's legacy, that is what he taught us all the most at the end of his life, the most important part of our lives are our loved ones, our family and friends. Without them we really have nothing at all. i miss you every minute of everyday my sweet angel, I know you watch over us all. I love you so much, Your mom

Hey Sean. Happy belated birthday! Thought about you yesterday. Right now we should be loving our newfound adulthood and rebelling or something. You're probably having more fun, though. Relay for Life is coming up again, and we're really excited. It's all for you, baby. Miss you and love you.

Hey Sean,
Thought about you today. I can't believe it's been three years already. I miss you so much, boo. Your beautiful new nephew looks like you, I can tell just from the pictures.
Senior year isn't the same without you, because we all know you should be here enjoying it with us. But we think about you every day and know you're having your own party watching over us.
I'll be thinking about you and your family this weekend, and I hope all is well for them. I love you, kiddo.

Sean, You mean the world to us still. not very often do my days go by that i dont think of you in one way or another. I try to stay in contact with your mom, i know you would like that. im told that your nephew? looks a lot like you, and im so glad that your sister has been there so close. i had a dream about you the other day, i dreamt that we were all still riding our bikes around that naborhood down the ditches and back up the other side like a skatepark. our own skatepark. with no one to bother us but the nosey nabors. ha. my spelling hasnt changed much, but i feel its the thought that counts.

My baby brother! I miss you so much, I've been thinking about you so much lately, I do all the time but lately it's been harder without you. It's hard to believe I haven't seen you in 2 1/2 years and neither has your family. Although I try to stay positive it's hard sometimes when the pain comes so strong. Your nephew was born, Taylor, of course named after his brave and awesome uncle Sean. Sometimes I can see a lot of you in his eyes, it's comforting and also makes me sad because I know how much you love him and how much you would love to hold him, teach him things (like fishing!) and how helpful you would be. Your my best friend still and I know you are his guardian angel, you will keep him safe. I am going to tell him all about his uncle Sean, he looks at your pics sometimes and it's like he already knows who you are. I'm going to tell him what a brave, beautiful, smart uncle he had and how much he loves him. Keep looking down on us and know that I love you so much and you continue to be in my heart and in my daily thoughts. I wish I could just hug you tight and see you, and especially hear your laughter. Your are a wonderful person and I hope to see you in my dreams. We all miss you. Love you brother.

Sean,
I'm in college now! can you believe it? for one of my papers i had to write about a change in my perceptions on an aspect of life. i wrote about you and how your bravery and optimism left such an impact on me. it was so hard writing about you, it took me for an emtional rollercoaster that i was not expecting. i started thinking about how much i miss you and all the fun times we had in the neighborhood. you are loved by so many people. its amazing. keep looking down on us seany. thanks for showing us all what bravery and courage really is.
love,

Hey Seanyboo. I don't really have anything new to say, except that I miss you so much, kiddo. Relay for Life is coming up again, and thinking of you will be driving my every step-it's all for you, baby. Hope you're partying up there. Love you always.

Hey Sean!
Relay for Life is coming up soon, so I'm thinking about you a lot. As team captain for the CHS Civinettes, it's been hard to keep everything together through all the stress of organizing a team, but then I have to remind myself that we're doing this for YOU and your family, not to win silly awards for making our campsite pretty. We're walking for YOU, Sean. :)
I hope your family is at peace, and that you're having fun in Heaven. :D We miss you so much!

Your 17th b-day. It is hard to believe- but not as hard to believe than that you are not here. You are still part of so many lives and the world here. And you are thought of every single day. May God bless you and keep you close to Him.

My dearest Sean, How your family and friends miss you and love you so....Time will never change that. I long for you more everyday. I spent the week thinking about our times together, how I cherish my memories with you and your sister and brother. I feel you with me every moment of my life but I will forever ache for your physical being. I know you will watch over your sister, you will be her angel--I know how proud you are, to be an uncle. Never forget how much we love you, and how much we wish you were here with us. I know how much you loved your family, that's all you really wanted--to be here with us. And Sean, you are the best of all of us. Your memory is forever alive, I love you with all my heart, Your Mom

Wow..2 years already. I hope Heaven is all I hope it is for you-relaxing, pain-free, and a nice spot to watch over your family from. It's time to start making plans for Relay for Life again, and Camille and I are starting up a team. :] My prayers are with your family, especially this week.

Wow. 2 years. I watched the photo album slide show and got to smile seeing your face again at the various stages of your life here. What a true joy and pleasure to have known you, shared time/talks/stories with you- and know you both as an angel on earth and an angel now. You are missed and thought of often.
Christine Bauer
November 19, 2007
Sean, It's hard to believe that years have past without seeing you. Sometimes the more time that goes by the harder it is. I miss you and so does mom, don't worry though, I am taking care of her, so is uncle donnie this weekend. It is easiest in my dreams when I can still see your face, hear your laughter and feel your hugs. You were the one person I felt the closest to and you always will be. Believe it or not I will have a little one coming in about 7 months and I know you are watching over smiling as a proud uncle. I also know you will be he/she's guardian angel, as you are ours. I would be so proud if my baby turns out anything like you. Hopefully in he/she's blue eyes I will see your beautiful spirit. I love you brother and please visit my dreams as often as possible. Love your sister.

Hey Sean----I just had to say I also went out and got the new Hobie Mirage Revolution foot pedal Kayak!!! We all think of you every time we go out looking for Dolphins on biscayne bay. Gayle always talks about you when we go. I complain about the heat, but you know me........poolside with a Margarita is my preference, but I do love the kayaks. You are the inspiration we all think of all the time, Seannie. You are with us every day. Love ya buddy!

Sean, Til the season for being in the water again- yesterday I went kayaking in my new kayaks I had to buy to be as cool as Matt and I saw manatees in the canal behind us. We sat a watched a baby with it's mom and 2 others for 45 min. You would have loved to see them there! Now, you are proabably living with them and dolphins and tons of fish! I am going to play Trainer for the Day at Clearwater Aquarium in a few weeks- and I know I will be talking to ya! Miss you- still, and always. Thoughts of your smile warm the whole world. p.s.-Thanks for steering your big sister off those hot coals! Her foot was pretty nastY! Love ya kiddo.

Seany, hey buddy! Wow, this weekend was a crazy one. I wish you could have been there, but I knew you are always watching. Friday night was so wonderful. Your friends Kim, Camille, Tiffany, Becca and Sarah were walking for you at Relay for Life. It was a great night. It was so wonderful finally meeting all of them but also heart warming to know that there are so many people keeping your memory alive. You have definitely touched the lives of many people. I know you were watching over us all that night especially. Saturday we went and helped Matt tile his porch and then went on the boat for some night fishing. I could feel you all around. We went on an island and want to camp there soon and saw some punk kids had lit some brush on fire, kids that have nothing in common with you. You always appreciate nature in a way that I have never seen before and never will see. We put the fire out and I burnt my foot on some of the scolding hot sand, it was definitely a clumsy moment but it was hard to see. Then instead of going to the doctor.. you would be proud of me... I stuck it in a bait bucket filled with ice and salt water and continued to fish for the next few hours. We caught a few fish too!! But my foot is doing well. The fishing was worth it for sure. You would have laughed your head off. But I know after walking at the Relay for Life that I want to help as much as possible with people that are going through the awful things that we went through. I miss you so much buddy and think about you every second. You are my best friend and always will be. Mom is doing ok, she is in a lot of pain, and so am I. We miss you so much. Please keep giving us signs that you are around us. Please visit my dreams soon.
Love you forever,
Your sister.

To Sean's wonderful friends I met Friday night at the Relay for Life cancer fundraiser--To Kim, Camille, Tiffany, Becca and Sarah. Each of you are beautiful and amazing young women--I was totally impressed with each one of you, I know your parents are so proud of you. Christine and I talked about you all a lot since then. Thank you for the wonderful talks and memories of Sean, I cherish those memories, I love to hear about your times with him. And most of all thank you for walking in the Relay for Life for him, and for never forgetting my baby, I know you'll always think of him. Don't forget, I'll be calling you all to see when we can go to lunch, but of course I'll want to talk about my Seany. Each of you is delightful and I feel honored I was able to finally meet you all, Sean was lucky to have such wonderful and loyal friends. And thank you to my wonderful friend Kathy Gloer, for your generous donation to the girls for Relay for Life. Thank you to everyone who thinks of Sean, and will always keep his memory alive. Life will never be the same without Sean, we all love him and miss him so much. Thank you again for all you do for Sean's memory. Love you all, Debbie

Hey kid.
Relay for Life is coming up fast and Kim and I are really psyched to be walking for you! I think about you every day, and I'm still keeping your amazing family in my thoughts as well. The other day at school someone brought up a day in seventh grade when we (well, you) started a mini-food fight at lunch for no reason except to start something...good times, good times. I'd give anything to go back to those days, but I also know you're in a better place now. I miss you and love you, baby!
Donald Norton
February 26, 2007
Sean----Talked about you Saturday at lunch with my good friend Sally. She laughed with me about you and her grandson, who is 14 and fighting his own battle right now. What joy you brought your family, even in the face of adversity. He is the same, she and I talked for 2 1/2 hours about it ! Your 16th birthday came and went, thought about you a lot. We miss you, kiddo.....so much. Talk to you later.

Hey Sean! It's been way too long since I've written, and I'm so sorry for that. I'm participating in Relay for Life this year with my club at school, and I can honestly say that I would probably not be doing it if you hadn't affected my life so much. I want you to know that I'm doing it for you! :] I need to talk to your mom and sister about it too, because I think they might want to do it with us, or get some of your friends and family and start a team just for you! If I'm elected President of that club next year, I know that I want to do more for cancer patients, survivors and the family of cancer patients. Well, I just wanted to tell you that. :] Love you!

My beloved son, Happy Birthday--you would be 16 years old today, I can't believe it. I've thought about you and prayed for you all weekend and today. I stayed home today, you were with me all day. I feel your presence, I miss you so. Christine made me a beautiful picture collage and poem about you. My thoughts are filled of memories of you and our times together--they keep me going. We had such great family times, your family thinks of you all the time. I pray God is looking out for my baby because I no longer can. I miss you every minute of everyday and love you more than anything else in the whole wide world. I love you, Mom
Christine Bauer
February 5, 2007
Sean, it's hard to believe you would have been 16 today. It's going to be hard to get through today. I'm working but can't stop thinking about you and how today would have been so great, you would have gotten mom's old car and we could have gone to the DMV to get your license. I try not to think sadly but I do and at least a few tears come from my eyes. I know mom is suffering just the same as me today, keep giving her signs that your all around to comfort her, as well as me and the rest of our family. I know Dad misses you and we both enjoy your dreams, keep them coming to help us not to be sad. I miss you buddy and will forever. Happy 16th.
Love your sister.

January 25, 2007
Sean, I've been thinking about you a lot lately. I always think of you about 100 times a day but lately I've been even more sad. My birthday is tomorrow but each year that goes by makes me more sad because that's one more day away from you. Sometimes it's overwhelming thinking about everything you went through and everything that has happend, but I'll keep thinking about you every day until my last day, and then we'll be reunited. Just know that your always on my mind and your legacy lives on through your family, who misses you. Please visit my dreams again soon! Please let your spirit be felt around us.

Sean--Thanksgiving came and went and we all thought of you every moment. Our lives are so different without you, we miss you terribly. I know heaven is so peaceful for you, after all you went through. One year has passed but we still see you every day and you are still with all of your family and friends. We will see you again some day. Love, Uncle Donnie

Seany - Well I cannot believe a year has already passed since you've been away. Even now sometimes I don't believe it. We are at Matt's house, I know you loved it here. We went on the boat and we all wrote you a message and throw it into the ocean, since that was your favorite place.
We were out on the boat, near sunset and the sky was filled with an orange glow, there were birds flying, fish seemed to be jumping everywhere and I knew that that was your Heaven. It was so inspiring. We sat there and I just looked into the clouds and I could feel your spirit all around. I miss you so much Sean. You always understood me so much and it's hard, sometimes I feel alone without you. Nathan is in the army, I know you'd be proud of him. Mom is doing ok, Matt & I try to help her as much as I can, Matt & Dad are doing alright too. Everyone just misses you so much buddy. I just wish that this was a dream and that I would wake up and it was different. You deserved better. But everytime I question how your doing and where you are, I'll think of our sunset boat ride, because I know that is your home now.
Please visit my dreams again so I can see you and talk to you.
I love you baby brother and you will always be apart of me, one year or 100 years.
Love forever- Christine.

Sean, May God give your family and friends strength. Memories of you will live on forever in so many people and places. May your little smile and memories of your face, kindness and your being light up the world! A tough year- and I know it doesn't get any easier- the memories get stronger and hold people close to you as time goes on. Love and miss you,

Hey Sean! I can't believe its been almost a whole year now since you left us. Time seems to have gone by very fast, and I just wish you could be here with us at Thanksgiving. I can only wish that your family is ok, I haven't heard from Christine or your mom in a long time, so I hope they're alright. I hope they have a wonderful holiday season, even though it can never be as it once was; and I'm so so sorry for that. I wish I could see them in person again, just as I wish I could see you again. We still love you Sean.

My beloved son, How have I survived 11 months without you, I just don't know. I don't know how any of us have survived, your family misses you so. I don't see your physical body but you know Sean, I think of you every minute of everyday. You are the first person I think of every morning, the last person I think of, cry for and pray for every night before I go to sleep. And people that say , it will get better with time--they just don't know, it will never get better. And life will just never be good again, not without my baby. I cherish our memories together, we have so many wonderful memories. Your wonderful friends have great memories of you too, I love hearing about your times with your friends, I love it so much when they write to you. I love you more than anything else in the whole wide world--my beloved son , Your mom

Sean, at one point in everyday theres always something that happends or something i see or hear that reminds me of you. i see your face, smiling and happy. and in a way, im at ease because i know your with me. yesterday, i had a very hectic day at school. tons of work and i had to rush home to get ready to cheer at the chamberlain game, all the while fighting with my mom and yelling and throwing clothes everywhere. as my family all piled in the car everyone seemed to be mad at me. no one was talking to me. after a few minutes a song that reminds me of you came on the radio. my eyes immediatley filled with tears. it took me out of my chaotic day and took me back to school with you. and all the times we shared at lunch and before and after school. in that moment my family fued was over. and our whole car began talking about you, sean. i love sharing stories that ive witnessed and know about what a heroic person you were. and all the wonderful deeds you did for people. and what a strong bond you and your mom had. I pray for your mother every night. like i say in every entry, your mother is a hero as well. nobody will suffer the pain that she has suffered losing you sean. you were her baby. i miss you sean. youll always be in my heart and i promise your legacy will go on forever.

Hey Sean!
I can't believe it's taken me so long to actually come to your site and tell you about this, but it's such an amazing story.
I skipped homecoming to go on a youth retreat at Dayspring, and I was kind of bummed about missing it. BUT, on the 3rd day, Sunday, I was eating breakfast and Christine and Mrs. Debbie come up to me, and I knew exactly who it was once I saw them! Then they introduced me to your brother, Matt. I was in shock all day, and I still am. What if I had gone to homecoming instead? I would have had to wait 10X longer to meet them! God is pretty amazing, Sean. Love you and miss you!

My little bro,
I haven't written in a while. Partly because sometimes it's too hard because I miss you so much.. today has been hard. I can feel you in my heart and around me. I hear your songs on the radio, when I'm at home I imagine seeing you and flash back to things we used to do.. sometimes it's so hard Seannie. I'm working with Matt and Mandy now, I know you would have gotten a kick out of that. I'm training for my leukemia run too... when it's hard all I can do is think about you and it makes it easier.
Mom is doing okay, I try to be there for her. I can't believe today has been 10 months, as time goes by it scares me more and more... more time away from you... I'm so glad that Kim and Camille wrote on your page. Now I have their emails, I miss them.
I haven't had any dreams lately with you in them.. pleease come soon buddy.
I love you forever,
your big sister Christine.

Wow, Sean. It's been a while. I don't even know what to say to you, except how I wish I could have gotten to know you better, and how I miss you even though we didnt know each other very well. I know you're watching over your mother and sister- Christine has deleted her myspace, I think, and now I can't talk to her anymore. I really miss her. School's alright, I'm sure you would have LOVED Chamberlain as much as I do, ;). Just know that you'll never be forgotten. Miss you..

Hey, Sean.
So my life has been really busy lately, but somehow I'm thinking about you more and more each day. I still can't even begin to imagine what your family is going through. I was at a restaurant tonight with a few friends when 100 Years came on the radio. We had all been talking and laughing, but we all heard the song at the same time, and the whole table went quiet. It's your song, kiddo. And lately I've been making sure I listen to it at least once a day. When everything else in my life seems chaotic, I just pause life, play the music, and remember all the fun we had a few years ago. That's when I realize that you're really still here with all of us, and that life isn't so chaotic after all.
I just thought I would share that with you. I love you, kid.

Sean, Just thought about you a lot today. I know your pain is gone and that is so great. There is a lot of sadness from you leaving, but no one wanted you to have to suffer. Please little angel, just help to fill the void in those you left behind with memories instead of sadness. They say only time can help, but I think maybe an angel as special as you could too! I will wink at the next dolphin I see and smile for the relief you have recieved. We miss you at our old lady lunches!

My Sean, It's been the longest 9 months of my life, we all miss you so much. We talk about you all the time, you know that, and I cry for you every single day of my life. I close my eyes and see your sweet face, smile and those big beautiful blue eyes. Your blue eyes were the color of the ocean. I love it when your friends and when family still write to you, that way I know people still think of you and don't forget my baby. I miss you so much, I long for the day I'm with you again. You're always in my heart and soul. I love my baby so much--and I miss you every minute of every day. I love you, Mom

Hi Sean.. I never met you, but I knew of you. I'm sitting here reading everything that peaople write about you, and I wish I would have gotten to know you because I see that you were a loving and caring kind of guy. I started crying because of everything that people have written. I hope your family is doing fine. I cant imagine how they feel. Well like I said before, I never met you, but I will be praying for you and your family.
Love,

Hi buddy, I can't believe it's been 8 months today since you've been gone. I'm listening to our IPod right now thinking how much fun we used to have. I still think about you every second & can never stop that. I miss my friend, my brother. We are doing the best we can but I still miss you so much & cry over you every day. Thank you for coming into my dream last week; please continue to do so, it was wonderful talking to you. I love you buddy & I miss you so much. Mom is doing okay; we stick together & talk about you all the time. Sometimes I look at your picture & bring myself back.. back to the fun times we used to have and when you were here with us. I love you brother, come into my dreams more! Luv- Your sister.

My angel Sean, I have to write to you on my birthday, I just can't express to you or anyone else the pain of you not being here with me, the first birthday without my youngest child. I know you were with me every minute, I spent some time with Christine and Nathan and with Grandma and Barb. Everyone misses you so. Last year was a bad birthday because we just found out you relapsed, but I could look at that beautiful face and we were together. This year was a hundred times worse because I couldn't see your face or put my arms around you and tell you how much I love you. I talk to you and pray to you everyday. I love my family and friends and I know they're there for me but the pain of your loss is just so great. Sometimes I still don't believe I'll never see you again on this earth. But I anxiously await the day I will be with my baby again. Thank you Kim, Camille, and RD for caring--I know you all miss him too. Sean, I think about you every minute of every day and I love you more than anything else in the whole wide world. Your Mom

Hey Buddy,
I'm back at home. Yesterday it's been 7 months since I've seen you last and sometimes it's hard to believe. I miss you so much buddy. Sometimes I really need your advice on what to do in life and you were always willing to help me with whatever I needed, I miss you. I like talking to Kim & Camille, they are good girls and I can see what an impact you made on them.
I worry about Mom and try to help her the best way I can. I don't think she realizes how much I love her and care about her. She is my best friend (as you were) and I want her to know how much I love her and how proud of her I am for being such a great person. She's the best mom we could have asked for. She's her own person and knows I am proud of her for being strong & independant. I don't know what I would do without her, losing you broke a peice of my heart away.
Its hard for me to express exactly how I feel but I am proud of her and she (and Nathan, Matt & Dad) are the only ones who understand the heart break I feel.
I miss you so much buddy, every time I close my eyes I can see your face and laughter. I love you, your sis

Hey Sean! I know everyone's been saying they haven't written to you lately. Unfortuneatly I'm one of them. I went to Play-It-Again-Sports the other day to get some roller blades, and your friend RD was there. I don't think he knows who I am, we're pretty much strangers, but you are the factor that connects me and him. I finally asked him about your wonderful mom, and how she's been. I told him that I talk to Christine all the time..such wonderful people you're related to and are friends with. RD gave me your mom's phone number, but I'm still trying to gain the strength to give her a call. Losing you has been so hard. I think about you every day, and what Heaven's like. The songs at your funeral still make me cry, without fail. I know that God let you go on special trips from Heaven to be with your mom and dad for Mother's/Father's day. I love you so much Sean. Love, Kim

Hey Seanie, I'm in Wisconsin right now, wow you would have loved it here. I imagine this as your Heaven. Nothing but fishing, animals and cool days. I know if you were here you and Nate would be fishing from dust till dawn. I think about you every second of every day buddy, how I miss you. When I got here it was almost overwhelming, I could feel your spirit all around me. Dad is here too. I think we both thought the same thing. I can almost look into the sky and see you looking down on me. I miss Mom, it's only been a week but she's always on my mind as you are, we both miss you more than you'll ever know. But I know your all around us and watching over us as we go on, until we see you again.
I enjoy talking to Camille, she's a good girl and a good friend. I will keep talking to her for a while too. Matt misses you too, he talks about you and the fishing days. Well buddy, it's almost been 7 months and I can still close my eyes and see you laughing and us joking around, I hope I can still see that image until I see you again. Luv you buddy, Your big sis

Hey, Seanyboy. How's it going? It's been almost 7 months now, and still it feels like yesterday that I heard the news. I still think about you every single day; I think everyone does. I was looking through old yearbooks and photos and found pictures from the old lunch table in 7th grade, probably the best year of my life this far. I'm never going to forget the fun we had every day at lunch: the endless heated discussions that would lead to mini food fights, and how you'd always be the one sticking up for me when the other guys ganged up on me. You were one of a kind, kiddo, you really were. I've started talking to Christine lately, and you were lucky to have such a great sister. And at the same time, we were all lucky to have you. So thanks for being so great! :] I love and miss you so much, kid. Take care.

My angel Seany, I still have to write in your guest book now and then to tell you again how much I miss you. I know you know that because I talk to you and tell you everyday but I still need to see it in writing. I dream about you everyday and think about all our times and our family times together. I survive on those memories. I still think about you every minute of everyday. Christine and I talk about you all the time, what we both would give to see you again. I talked with RD on his birthday, he misses you too. Matt told me he took RD fishing today, I know you were right there with them. Matt wishes so much you were here to go fishing with him, he misses you, like we all do. I talked with Tylee, your nurse, this week--she misses you and loves you so. I pray to you everyday my sweet angel boy. How life is so dead without you. I'll see you in my thoughts and dreams every day and night. I love you more than anything else in the whole wide world, your Mom

Sean, im sorry i haven't been writing. This whole thing is still so hard on me... Not a day goes by where i dont think about what we could be doing, specially during the summer. That was the time we were literally stuck to each other. I have been muddin in my truck alot and just tearin it up, it's not the same without you, not even close.. I love and miss you alot sean and to be honest, if i had the choice for god to either have me or you, i would have picked me... You deserve to experience all the fun times. I've been fishin in your boat and its been workin great. I haven't seen your mom around, i just want to give her time, and i know between her workin and hanging out with her friends its hard. She really misses you sean. I hopee your feeling better bud and watching over my shoulder.. My birthday is tomorrow and i was thinkin about my 15th and 16th birthdays where you came over and we had a blast. I love you sean, im going to try and get a hold of your mom, love you bud.

6 months- it's hard to believe Sean. I can see and hear you like it was yesterday, but then it seems like so long ago. I am so sorry for all the suffering you went through and know that has ended for you and just begun for your family and friends. Thank God you taught everyone how to fight for life Sean, because sometimes it is hard! You are truely missed and you are honestly thought of every single day. You left such a big impression on this world- you would be proud! Keep smiling on us and ask God to wrap his loving arms around your mom and protect her from her pain. This loss is unbearable, and she needs you now, more than ever. You have always been there for her, and I know you always will Sean. It's no surprise what an impression you left on your friends. Your short life will be celebrated for a very very long time. I miss you Sean. And it hurts my heart that you are gone.
