Sean Cassidy Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Curley Funeral Home - Chicago Ridge on Sep. 12, 2025.

Publish in a newspaper

Sean Martin Cassidy, age 62, suddenly, at rest September 9, 2025. Beloved husband of 35 years to Ann Margaret Cassidy, nee Lynch; Loving father of Sean, Patrick and Kate Cassidy; Cherished son of the late James and Mary Cassidy; Dear brother of James (Linda) Cassidy, the late Colette Halpin, Therese (Wayne CPD) Kramer and Deborah (Rich) LaPage; Dearest son-in-law of the late Margaret and Thomas Lynch and brother-in-law of Tom (Colleen) Lynch, Michael (Sue) Lynch, Brian (Jennifer) Lynch, Elizabeth Lynch, Edward (Karen) Lynch and Jennifer (Michael) Kelly; Fun loving uncle of many nieces and nephews.

Sean never missed a gathering with family and friends. He was charismatic and full of life, the kind of person who could light up a room with his quick witted jokes and easy smile. He made everyone laugh and feel like a lifelong friend.

A passionate golfer for many years, he recently celebrated his best ever golf score with his "new driver." He was a diehard White Sox fan, a proud longtime member of IBEW Local 134, a longtime member of the Flags Club and LOVER of Phil's Pizza! Sean would often be seen driving his Vespa "Moped" all around town.

More than anything, he was a supportive and patient father, always ready with a helping hand or a listening ear. His kindness, wisdom, and quiet strength made him a rock for those around him.

A true friend to many, he lived life to the fullest - with laughter, generosity, and an open heart. His presence was a gift, and his memory will continue to inspire and uplift all who knew him.
