Sean Sanders Obituary
Seany T
Aug 16 1989 - Nov 21 2021
On Sunday, November 21st, 2021 Sean Thomas Sanders "Seany T" passed away at the age of 32. Sean was born on August 16th, 1989 in Indian Hills, Colorado to Scott Sanders and Karen Sanders. Sean spent his formative years in Applewood, Colorado graduating from Wheat Ridge High School then continuing on to study at Colorado Mesa University then moved to Fort Collins and attended Front Range Community College.
Sean was an avid outdoorsman, having climbed many of Colorado's 14ers with his friends and family, fly fishing Colorado's streams with his brother Kelly and camping countless times with his brother, cousins and friends. He was a talented carpenter and was currently building his dream home on the White River in Buford, Colorado with his fiance Quinn, brother Kelly and his dad and mentor, Scott. In addition to building their dream home, Sean and Quinn shared a love of gardening and had recently built "Pa's Pantry" a greenhouse in Buford. He was a huge Denver Broncos fan and claimed he was the biggest Broncos fan in the Sanders family- a true feat.
Sean is reunited in the afterlife with his Grandparents Gary and Beverly Sanders "Granny and Pa," his Grandpa John Miller "Papa John", his cousin Ryan White and his dog Bandit.
Sean is survived by his soulmate and fiance, Quinn Olson; his best friend and brother Kelly Sanders, his devoted mother Karen Sanders, his father Scott (Jody) Sanders, his grandmother Barbara Miller, countless family members, friends and his dog, Aggie.
Sean was a gentle soul, an amazing son, a wonderful partner and a joy to be around. He will be missed dearly by all that knew him. We love you Sean, until we meet again.
A celebration of Sean's life will be held at a later date.

I am truly sorry for your loss. I value the time that I spent with Sean. We worked together building two homes in Denver. I remember Sean would bring us cold leftover pizza from his job. I got to really look forward to that simple kindness and our morning chat´s.
He was a kind person and there are too few of them currently. I know he will be missed.
