I knew Sean for a very short time but was struck at the fact that he loved knowledge; he loved the truth; he loved God's children who embraced the truth; he loved the Church of God that teaches the truth; he loved God who IS THE TRUTH. Now he beholds the Truth face to face ... a consoling fact. Enjoy your vision of the Truth until we meet to part no more.

In the Words of Jesus Christ according to Saint John (Jn 14:1-4, 6)

"Let not your hearts be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And when I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way where I am going. ... I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but by me."

Sean knew the Way!

Going to miss you cousin and I wish with all my heart I had a better opportunity to spend more time with you. PJ wishes that he could have been there to say goodbye this past weekend as well. We will see you again someday though but in the meantime we will miss you and always remember you.

I was so glad to know Sean even for a short time. I would see a smile on his face when he would help out in church at St. Thomas More. Sean was so kind and humble at heart, which makes me think of the words of Jesus,

"Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven." Mt 18:3-4

Sean even expressed his desire to join the Religious life. He seemed to always want to pray.

My deepest condolences to Sean's family. You should be proud of Sean. Please know that you can find strength in Jesus Christ. He is in the Tabernacles of every Catholic Church in the world. He is there waiting for you. That is where Sean was the happiest.

Eternal rest grant unto Sean O Lord, and may perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.

My dearest Nephew,

I have been deeply blessed to have had you in my life for the past 27 years. I will truly miss your laugh. I will keep you near my heart always. I know you are with the lord doing some powerful things he called you up for. You will be sorely missed. I will always love you.

Lovingly

Another one.
