Dad,Mom, Trudy, Cedric, Brynn Brynn, & Shelia
Words can not express or comfort you in the manner in which I intend for them to at this difficult time, but may the memories you shared together overshawdow the grief and bring joy to your hearts. As we remember Sean, may our thoughts be of the laughter, joy, and humor that he brought to us at some point of his life. May you gain strength and a peace that passes all understanding as Sean's passing is celebrated for the many lives he knowlingly and unknowingly touched and the lives that he willingly allowed to touch him. I regret not being able to attend the memorial, but I will treasure the memories that I have of Sean. Stay encouraged. I love you all.

We've just been friends, and now you're going
Far away for many years.
But please don't leave me without knowing
How I feel as your time had drawen near.

I know you're older, more mature,
And far beyond me in some ways.
But there's something between us something pure
That's given me this memory lane.

I thank you for the loveliness
That your sweet friendship's brought to me.
Think of this poem as a caress
That says, "I love you" gracefully.

Rest Well Sean and watch over me as you will all the people you have loved. This is my way of saying see you when my time has also come.

My thoughts are with everyone and with the Creasy Family.

Mr. Creasy, Thank you again for being so kind as to inform me about Sean's passing when I called. I do look foward to your email and again I would love nothing more then to continue to communicate with you. It will be a pleasure and I feel that for me it will keep Sean more near. I regret that I did not stay as close in touch with him as I wanted to. Heaven knows that was one great guy who was sweet, understanding, funny and he will always have my thoughts and heart! May god see you and your family thru. I am sure Sean and my father are getting to know eachother well . I am sure he has welcomed Sean with open arms. Now, Sean is more able to watch over you. With Love, That Girl From Michigan.
