Sean was a great friend. We were Roger her in Miramar. We bought motorcycles together and lived riding in Southern California. We lost touch after he got out, but he was a guy that always had a great outlook on life and I wish his family well and hope I can assist in some way as a way to show what impact Sean had in my life. SEMPER FI BROTHER.
