Sean was like a brother to me. He could bring a smile to anyone's face with the littlest of ease and was just too great for this world. He was truly a diamond in the rough. Miss you sean and please save me a seat in heaven.

Charles,
Please find comfort knowing that Sean is not alone in Heaven because he is with GG, Nana, PopPop, and your father. Even though they have left this Earth, they are always in our thoughts and our hearts.

When I first heard about all this I was just devastated, like everyone else. Why does it have to happen to the kids with a great life ahead of them? It just doesn't make any sense, but I guess "everything happens for a reason."
I used to hang out with him pretty often back in the days when I'd visit the "deck road crew," and there are just so many great memories that go along with that..
Sean was such a great kid. He was there for the all of us when Justin & Jeffrey were killed.. he was right there to mourn with us and just comfort everyone. And I thank him for being there. I did get to see him a couple months ago at the "cottage," and it was such a great time. I'll never forget this kid, he always brought a laugh. My heart goes out to his family & friends.
& Sean, please give Jeff and Jut a HUGE hug for me? Thanks bud, RIP <3

I am deeply saddened and disheartened by Sean's passing. I have been to far too many memorials for Christopher's friends. Know my thoughts are with Sean's parents, family and the many friends he had surround him in his short life. He was loved and will never be forgotten.

My thoughts and prayers go out to Sean and Sean's family. I had the pleasure of having Sean as a student in math class at Quakertown High School his senior year. Sean was a bright, energetic young man with a great sense of humor who always made me smile and brightened up the class. He had great promise and potential in this world, but God must have a bigger plan for him. He will be missed, but never forgotten. God bless.

Dear fellow SICU-Family members,and friends in Christ;
This may sound weird to others reading this, but Greg and Kim, you'll understand me I bet, when I remind you that my dad Tony was going to be in Heaven entering with Sean that night. I KNEW they'd meet for sure. My dad was a friend to all, as well as a great father,so i'm sure they shoke hands and exchanged a smile up there.
We prayed all the time for your son, not knowing his name or condition; glancing in on our way to N418, during those horrible weeks. We SO understood the agony on that hospital ward.
Our hearts go out to you, hoping the warm memories of your son's life, along with the wonderful outpouring of love you're getting from family, friends and a touched community, make it a bit easier to bear this overwhelming sorrow.
Sean touched so many who never knew him before this month, and I, now can see in this passage how many others he had a good influence upon in his life before that awful Friday.
God's plan is a wonder and a sorrow at times. Looking back we are seeing how our personal tragedy played out to connect us with people and events we were meant to know. God prepared us during our long difficult months to let my Dad go on to our Lord. I hope you feel the same comfort in a sort of way since you taught your son the glory of our Lord and he knew how to serve Him so well. He wasn't alone on his journey. And, You are not alone in your journey through greif, but rather you have support from God and those He gives us on Earth. Thank you for sharing your time and prayers for my dad and our family, during a time when you were so sad yourselves. Meant to meet, I thank God for the privilege of knowing about Sean, and getting inspiration from your family 's devotion. My family won't ever forget yours.

Dear Family,
I am a mom of 3 and I too, lost a child at the age of 9 , unexpectedly. I saw you at your son's bedside on Monday, when I was to do his blood work. I was told by the nurse that they didn't need to be done. My heart is so sad for all of you. I shared your pain, I cried when I got in the elevator. May God bless and please know that I am only a stranger to you, but, I CARE, and I will keep you all in my prayers. God has plans for all of us, we don't understand why these things happen and we search for answers. Please believe that God Knows why. It doesn't take the pain away, but, Sean is now in Gods Hands . Please believe that you will be reuinted one day with him.
Gods peace and love to you.

Kim, Gregg, Josh and Charles,
Our hearts go out to you. We have been thinking about all the crazy things Sean and Jason and the rest of the DRTC Crew (Harry, Lauren and Brian) did growing up and will always remember those times fondly. It has been our pleasure to have been able to consider Sean as "part of the family" and one of our "other" kids. Our prayers are with you.

I am very sadened to hear he passed away. I worked with Sean at P.P.S. Shartlesville. He had a big heart for life and always a smile on his face. I became a friend of him and enjoyed the times we had together this past summer. My husband Gary and I send our deepest sympathy and love to Sean's family and others who also loved him. He is in God's house now. We will miss him dearly.

Wow...I saw the name Sean Weed, and I thought, "It can't be the same one." Sean and his brother, Charles, and I lived in the same neighborhood and shared a bus stop for a few years. I didn't know him that well, but it is awful that he left this world so young; however, he is now one of Heaven's angels.
My condolences go out to his family.

God Bless.

Oh Sean-y, My Ane. You were my 2nd brother. Can't believe it yet. Our family will miss you dearly. I never got to take you out to the "club", that you made fun of me about. At least you are with your dad now, looking down from Heaven. I miss you sooo much already. You are in a better place now, this world is no place for an upstanding young man like yourself. I love you Sean, forever.

Kim, Gregg, Charles, & Josh,
You are all deeply in our prayers just as you have been since this happened. Keep trusting in the Lord to carry you through this...and let little Josh continue to light up your face and make you smile in his innocence. Charles, I know you are not close to home right now through this, but you are just as close in our prayers also. We love all of you very much.
In His Name,

My deepest condolences to Sean's family. I was fortunate in getting to know Sean when he was a fifth-grade student at Northwestern. His intelligent and wry sense of humor is what I will never forget about this personable young man. So full of promise, he is gone from this life far, far too soon. May we find consolation in knowing God has welcomed him with open arms.
