Sean Tevlin, aged 45, died unexpectedly on February 26, 2025. He was the only child of Jack and Andrea Tevlin.

His joys in life were sports of all kinds – with particular love for our family’s generations of New York Yankee fans.

He excelled in all sports, especially baseball, basketball and football. Days spent in those endeavors made up his favorite pastimes.

Most of his adult life he worked as manager of restaurants in Arizona as well as California, where he lived for the past six years.

He was the most generous and kind a person one could find in life and his smile lit up a room. He will be sorely missed by family, friends and especially his Mom and Dad. May he now find the peace he searched for in life.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Thursday, April 10, 2025 at 10:00 am. at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral 100 West Roosevelt Street, Phoenix AZ 85003.
