My thoughts, prayers and SINCEREST condolences go out to the Spratling family. Mr. Sprat (Willie) used to cut my and my younger brother's hair and is one of my Dad's nearest and dearest friends. I only had the grand opportunity to see and speak with Sean on a few occasions, but he was always kind, welcoming and very professional. He always had a smile on his face and I could tell that he was just a good, all-around person. He will be missed and may he Rest In Peace....

I still can't believe this is real! I had the pleasure of you living with me for a whole year and I don't regret not one single day of it.All the late nights playing video games,joking and talking about shoes eating up all my food! You was like a little big brother to me. I don't know what God plan is and i won't question him! Just know you have made a huge footprint on my life journey. Love you man!
