Sean was an inspiration to us at Rainbow Montessori School, during his preschool years. He was so bright, caring and loving towards other students, and he had a beautiful smile and a great sense of humor. God bless you, Sean.

My time spent with Sean and his father Jack, mainly through St Vincent Martyr Parish in Madison's Cornerstone fraternity, was a blessing that remains enshrined in my heart. Sean's death is a tragic loss for his family and all who knew him. I believe the Lord will shine His perpetual Light upon Sean. May he know eternal joy and freedom. Sean was tasked to walk an exceptionally hard path on Earth. Special love to the Needham family. I pray with confidence that divine grace will lift up and carry all the Needham family through days of grief, to the singular Peace that only Christ can bestow. -Bill DiSciullo

We're thinking of you as you mourn the loss of your dear Sean, We're sure that he felt your loving care and support every single day helping him to grow into the wonderful man he was. We remember his enthusiasm when meeting new people... he was engaging from the start - at our last meeting in Hershey we came away with new found WWII info and a profound respect for your remarkable son. He truly had a special light that he seemed to share so willingly. You're in our prayers and certainly will remain so as you work through these especially challenging times. Hope you feel the love and support of family and friends who care so deeply- us included.
