As the weeks have passed it still seems hard to believe that your gone, but as the sign on the tree says," You will live on in all of us forever!"This is a great comfort to all of us.The thought of your smile and your famous nod,and all the things that you did that made us laugh.
Having coffee with your mom today meant so very much to us, I know that you would have wanted it this way someday.
Its a great loss to all of our lives not having you here but I know that you'll always be us everyday.We miss you!!!

I sat here the better part of yesterday trying to say something to try to comfort, but with the pain still so raw, the enormity and depth of the loss of Sean, all words seem so grossly inadequate........
We adored Sean. The highlight of the summer months were the weeks that Sean and Kerry would visit us at the Jersey shore. Even though he was several years older,when many kids his age only want to be with their own friends and can't be bothered with little kids, Sean was always so generous with his time and affection with his younger cousins. It always made them feel so special to know their cool older cousin liked being with them so much. Sean had a special way of really connecting with younger kids, and he would spend hours with Josh and Jason, goofing around on the beach building sand castles, boogey boarding (in the shallow water, which couldn't have been THAT much fun for Sean)or going to the amusement parks and water rides in Wildwood.......we will all cherish those memories forever.
Carol, Kerry and Tim, it is a comfort to me to know that you all have so many good friends (in addition to your family) who love and care about you all so much. Lean on us all whenever you need to. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I am here for you all 24/7.

Oh, Carol, I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am wrapping my arms around you and sending you hugs and caring and support in this truly difficult time. Be well, be with Tim, and with Kerry and be kind to yourself.

Dear Carol, Tim and Kerry,
I didn't have the pleasure of knowing sean, having only taken care of Kerry many years ago but it seems like I missed out. He sounds like a wonderful son, brother and friend to many. Know that you hold a special place in my heart and know that I will keep you in my thoughts and in my heart as always. There really aren't any words to make it better, just knowing that you are loved and have a lot of people around you to help you through this time. Be strong. Love, sherri Kelley

Sean was a very kind and caring young man, whose smile would light up my day. I will miss his dry sense of humor, our long talks in the kitchen, the way he could always tease a smile out of me, and his awkward but loving hugs. I’ll miss cooking him chicken noodle soup, and I’ll even miss the onerous task of waking him up for work on weekends, as he ‘occasionally’ slept through his alarm clock. I’ll miss watching him cuddle his cat, Flash, like a little baby.

He loved being Kerry’s protective big brother, and he loved Kerry very much. They really shared a special bond.

He loved laughing and playing with his cousins, and was proud of the way the younger ones looked up to him. He loved holidays, because it brought the family together.

He never took a sick day at work. He was the kind of guy who would rather go in feeling poorly than take the day off and place a burden on his co-workers. He worked in the produce department at Poricelli’s and knew his fruits and vegetables. I could never hide my smile when he’d proudly explain the proper way to ripen a pear, or where the best corn was coming from this season.

Sean had his own special style. He was proud of his crazy hair and he loved 60’s and 70’s music. I laughed when he bought tickets to an Allman Brothers concert, just like I did 30 years ago.

Sean suffered through a lot of turmoil during his teenage years, and like too many kids, he made some bad choices. We were all proud and happy to see him coming out of that, and on his way to better things.

He finally found his niche in the auto tech program at Porter and Chester, and he was very proud of his grades and excited about his work there. He had good, loving friends, who meant the world to him. He knew his family loved and respected him.

A while back Sean told me the things he wanted out of life were love, good friends, and a vocation that would bring him satisfaction. Although his life was far too short by any measure, I think he fulfilled all of those things, and I hope that can bring us all a measure of peace.

Many have asked what they can do to help our family at this time, and here is what I’d like: hug your children, or those closest to you, extra hard today, and hug them EVERY day. Sean would like that.

Sean, I will always love you and cherish you, I’ll hold you in my heart, I’ll miss you dearly, and I’ll think about you every day. God bless you.

Carol,

Few of us know what you are going through, but I think I'm one - - as I told you on the phone, it is a very small club that we belong to and no one joins by their choice. The next few days will be the most difficult of your life - but then again, nothing you will ever face again will be harder. I won't say it gets easier - it gets different. You will laugh, you will cry, and you will go on. Know without a doubt that Danny was there to help Sean with the transition - and oh Lord, Heaven had better watch out with the two of them together again!!! Please call me at any time. I don't pray often anymore, but I have spoken with HIM/HER and asked that your pain be eased. With love and understanding, Janet

I will miss Sean everyday, as will many. I'm so thankful that I met and had the great pleasure of working with Sean and sharing many laughs with him. There aren't many people who I would say are a genuine soul and I think everone can agree that he was one of them. I can't think of another person who was so easy to talk to. He helped me through many heartaches without judgement.I can't believe he's gone. I love you "The Kid" and I will never forget you.

Sean was definitly a great person. One of the only people I knew who had absolutely no enemies and has nobody that disliked him. How could you dislike him, he would just talk and you'd laugh. Definitly a loss to many and he will never be forgotten.

I am greatful to have seen Sean a couple of weekends ago. I have many memories hanging out with him and he will be missed by everyone who has ever had the honor of meeting him. He never failed to make anyone laugh. We will miss you.

I will always remember the laughs, the classes, and the good times we had junior and senior year of High School. Although I haven't seen Sean as much as I once did I would always ran into him at least a couple times a year and I always saw him at a music festival or two. He was a great kid who loved to laugh and touched almost everyone he ever met. He was a great friend to all and was always there if you needed a helping hand. My condolences go to his family and friends. He will truly be missed by all.

Thank you for all of the love that you gave

Thank you Sean for believing in me and being such a great friend, I'll never forget the wonderful memories we shared this summer and in years past. My condolences to the family. You are lucky to have had such an amazing son / brother.
