Its been 6 years since you left us, but it was like yesterday when we would talk about old times and all the different stories, we would laugh about. I miss those conversations.. Rip Sean, miss you, old friend.

To the Maher family. Sean and I were the closest of friends and almost inseperable during some very impressionable years (1978-80) The music I listen too, the people I knew, and things I learned about myself all had a little something to do with Sean. Though we went different ways I always thought of him as somebody I trusted.
