Sean,
We only met because we had friends in common. And oh boy, the friends we have. Sean you and I always had a good time together. I know that life gets hard where we're from.

Sean was a bright light extinguished much to soon. My prayers and thought are with his family. He will be missed by many. I was fortunate to have the opportunity to be his administrator at Brennan. "Be thou faithful until death, and I will give you a crown of life."
Rest in Peace
