It was with deep sadness when I heard from Elaine about Sean's passing. I know how close she was to him, but I truly believe Sean will live on in Elaine's heart. My deepest condolences go out to Sean's family for their loss of a loved one.

Much love to all the family. I knew Sean's grandmother, mother and aunts, because I grew up in West Islip. I met Sean and his brother when they were small. I know they were both close to my niece Liz and her husband Rick. I have heard many kind stories about him. Bless his sweet soul and be guided on his journey with loving prayers.

I never imagined we would lose Sean so soon and that we would never again go to Mets game together, share a day at the beach, go parasailing, plan a zero point meal together and compare how much weight we each lost, or just sit and talk. There is a hole in my heart that will never be filled and I will miss my nephew, Sean, forever. I love you buddy. Aunt Elaine
