Joe and Coleen - We are thinking of you. I have such sweet memories of David and Sean playing together at Sunset Beach. It is hard to match that picture with the concept that Sean is gone. That is so not suppose to be.
God be with you through this heartbreaking time.

I have fond memories of Sean when he and my son's other friends would come by the house and play video games or play cards in the garage. Often Sean would get here before the others and he would come in and sit down and we would chat. He loved to talk. He always had a big smile and kind words to say about everyone. This is what I will remember most about Sean, a very sweet boy. God Bless.
