Sean was the most wonderful husband and father who touched the lives of countless people in the community. He has been in the Virginia Beach Fire Department for over 30 years currently holding the rank of Captain. He has also been a Brand Manager for Tres Agaves Tequila for almost 10 years.
In addition to his parents, his life will be remembered and celebrated by his loving wife, Starr Land; his daughters, Madison and Alexandra; his step-son, Chase; his grandfather, Norwood Land; his sister, Shannon and her husband Clark; his nieces, Caitlin and Carly; along with his extended family, co-workers and many friends.
Sean's service will be private. A reception will be held from 12:00-2:00 p.m. on Monday, February 10, 2020 at the Virginia Beach Fire Training Center located at 927 S Birdneck Rd, Virginia Beach, VA 23451.

I taught Sean in Grade 7 at Princess Anne Junior High. He was a stellar adolescent and developed into a fine Christian gentleman who cared deeply for his fellow man. My sincere prayers and sympathies I offer to his family. May God give you comfort and solace during this time of loss.
