I was just thinking of Sean the other day: his love of cigars, his love of his family, his sense of humor and natural friendliness. I hope all of you, especially Jane, are well and enjoying life. Jane and Sean created a wonderful group of people (aka family) together.

It is so amazing this email came today. I had already been thinking about Sean this morning and how odd it still is to think he has passed. I was remembering with fondness times talking with Jane, a fellow Irish Catholic girl, when we were car pooling. I had already been thinking this morning that I hope she is well and wondering how yoga is going. I am so glad this came so I can pass on my persistent sadness that Sean is not with them and my hope that all the McCourts are well and happy. God bless you all.

McCourt Family.
My early ties to the entire McCourt family are so memorable. Going to the beach every morning with Char, discovering the Beatles while I was living with them during my family move, and sandlot games in the empty field by our houses. I really only know Sean as a child as he was younger, but the memories of our interactions are lasting. He was the rascal of the bunch, and always seemed to have fun with his life. I'm so sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the McCourt family, once again.

Dear Patrick, Rita, Jane, Brian, Kevin and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Sean.
I used to babysit the Mc Court boys in the 60's Living across the alley. My brother Lou, told me of his passing last weekend at our family memorial for my aunt. God bless you all at this time and I send my prayers, love and sweet memories❤❤

To Sean's family:
On behalf of CoreNet Global, I send my deepest condolences. Sean was a well-respected leader in corporate real estate whose leadership helped form this association through the merger of NACORE International and IDRC. I had the pleasure of working with Sean in those early days (and even convinced him to stand in a wading pool in a rain jacket and let us pour water on him for a video opening for our San Diego Global Summit.). May your family find comfort and peace during this difficult time in knowing how much he was appreciated and admired by members of the association he helped bring to life. With sympathy, Angela Cain, Chief Executive Officer, CoreNet Global

Dear Mc Courts,
Sorry I left the 'u' out of Mc Court in my last message. Certainly knew it belonged there. I am just so sad for you all. Thinking of you constantly.

Dear Jane and Mc Cort kids,
I just heard the very sad news yesterday at Elkhart Lake. I was completely stunned and truly crushed for all of you. I'm at a loss for just the right words. I always looked forward to your family rolling into Elkhart for a summer vacation at Pat's and Rita's cottage. Those were some of the most joyful times spent at the lake, and Sean made it that way. What a personality! He was so much fun and had a wicked sense of humor. Laughter was a constant. I was simply delighted, even for only a short time in the summer to spend time with such a neat guy. Jane, you had a wonderful, beautiful relationship with Sean and the fantastic kids you both raised together is a true testament of your love and devotion for one and other. I'm thinking of all of you with deep sorrow and I send you love and prayers.

Dear Jane and family, I was truly shocked and saddened to learn of Sean's passing. You may recall Sean brought me to the US when you all moved to Germany. My family and I are all grateful for that opportunity and the contribution Sean made to our lives. It is hard to accept that such a vibrant and energetic individual is no longer amongst us. The thoughts of our family are with you all at this difficult time. Thank you for sharing a small part of your lives with us.

Dear Jane and family,
Michelle and I are so sorry to hear of Sean's passing. It came as a shock as we weren't aware he'd been ill. He will be missed, but what a wonderful legacy he has in each of you.
Sean taught me much about what it means to be a professional -- and how to be a better father. He was so proud when Bud and the girls came to Ford Land to spend time with him. On a personal level, one of my favorite experiences was dinner in your home in Germany and enjoying the closeness you shared as a family.
May you all be blessed and comforted in the days ahead, finding joy in your memories of Sean. You are in our prayers.

Dear McCourt Family, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I worked for Sean at Ford Land and considered him my mentor. I have many memories and stories of our times working together on Ford Motor Company projects. He was an amazing "real estate guy" and will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this very difficult time.

Dear McCourt family, My thoughts and prayers are with you in this time of great loss. I did not know Sean but have been praying for him. Someone recently said that God does not take us, but catches us when our body can no longer support our spirit.
May you know God's love in gratitude for the past and in the present separation.

Dear McCourt Family,
Dan and I are so very sad to hear of Sean's passing. He was larger than life. We loved listening to his stories because he could make a mundane trip to Walmart hilariously funny. The Worm family always appreciated the kindness and friendship he showed our younger brother Tommy when we were kids at Sharpe's Resort. A great loss to say the least. Our very sincere condolences to all of you.
Much love, Dan and Cathy Ehlen
