Sean Greif Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Sean and Julie enjoyed 25 years together. Sean was a loving and caring husband who will be missed beyond measure. Sean was an amazing Uncle to his nieces and nephews, a Godfather to many children and a great friend to many people. Sean loved to fish and he had an appreciation for all cars (including Hot Wheels). Sean and Julie enjoyed spending time at car shows and would proudly take their 63 Ford Falcon. Sean also loved hanging out with friends and sharing many laughs. Sean was an avid White Sox and Chicago Bears fan. Sean loved to cook for his family and friends and always wanted to be behind the grill. Sean was a member of St George Church and would always volunteer to lend a hand. He even put together a car show fundraiser for the Church. Sean always made sure he attended many school and sporting events for his nieces and nephews. Sean was a one of a kind guy who would always lend a hand to anyone. He was a guy that people knew they could count on and if you had an issue with a car, he was your guy. We lost an amazing man but Heaven definitely gained an Angel.
A special thank you to Home Depot FDC/BDC in Bedford Park, where he was employed for the last 5 years, for their support and compassion during this time.

First my condolences to Julie. I recently talked with Julie and Sean at the Montgomery car show, I knew his dad since we went to Simmons Jr High together, I recall when Danny passed I was heart broken he was a true friend, now that Sean has passed it is even more heart breaking, he was so excited to see me as I was to see him. He was telling me all about what he has been up to and how things are going in his life, we had a great conversation talking about old times and when he was younger. You never know what tomorrow will bring so make sure to take a moment to see a friend and share how you feel about them.
I will miss his friendship, this leaves an empty spot in my heart.
God Bless Sean......... God Speed My Friend.
