I just learned of Sean´s passing. I grew up in "The Park"with Sean, was classmates with him at Coghill, we are both Purple Knights, and played little league football with him under Coach Mac. Sean could hit, second only to Isom lol. Great kid always had a smile and stood up to bullies. He grew to be a greater man and asset to his community. Rest in Peace brother you left a high bar.

I am saddened to hear that Sean passed away. My family lived in Gentilly Woods. We were known has "the house by the cut". Sean would stop by on his way home from school. There were 8 kids in our household and that amazed Sean. He always felt that he just blended in. As time went on, my siblings and I left for college or moved away from home. I returned home for a visit and my mother asked for a ride to her pharmacy. On the way there, my mother just raved about how wonderful her pharmacist was. I was floored when I walked into the pharmacy and saw Sean! Both of us laughed so hard and he came out to give me a big hug! It was great to know that he was still in our family. Sean was an amazing person and he will be missed.

I was saddened to hear of Sean´s passing. I knew Sean from Pontchatrain Park and Xavier University. He was very kind, personable and funny. He always talked about his dreams of being a pharmacist and opening his own business. He made so many people proud when he opened the pharmacy. What a legacy he leaves! My condolences to his wife, sons and family. May God comfort and keep you during this difficult times.

My prayers to his Mother, Wife and sons and family/ Sean was more than just my pharmacist. I lost my 2 sons and daughters. He made sure I had my mental health together not just by delivering my meds but listening to what I had to endure. You will be miss and as you would tell me take a deep breath. I held this in. God says absent from the body and present with the Lord. The gates of heaven are open walk in Sean in peace
