I remember when I was first learning how to play basketball, Sean would tell me to stay outside the 3 point line and when I wanted the ball to yell out, "I'm here give me the ball!", cause I was the smallest on the court. Fun times.
I miss him dearly.
When I was told of Sean's passing, I just couldn't understand how such a bright light could be lost so soon. I met Sean thru my son Perry many years ago and knew immediately he was special. I saw in him and old soul. Back then I used to exhibit antiques at various antique shows throughout NJ. It is grueling work loading, unloading and setting up displays. Well Sean volunteered to help out for the weekend. This 3 day show was in Mays Landing during the middle of summer. We spent 3 days in hot humid weather being eaten alive by mosquitos and yet we had such fun, Sean made it fun! He shared stories of his beloved grandmother and his aunties and he definitely did some damage shopping for each of them. These memories I treasure, and often think about Sean and that memorable weekend. It was a privilege to have known Sean. He was a very special person and I pray he is now in Peace and Light. RIP Sean

I recognized in him an old soul! Back then I used to exhibit antiques at various antique shows through out NJ. It was grueling back breaking work loading, unloading and setting up. Well Sean volunteered to help me with an upcoming 3 day show in Mays Landing, south jersey. I cannot remember having such fun either before or after that show!! It would be an understatement to say I treasure those memories. We spent 3 days in uncomfortable hot humid weather, getting bitten up by mosquitoes and yet we had Such Fun!! He shared stories of his beloved grandmother and his aunties and he definitely did some damage shopping for each of them. These memories I treasure, it was a privilege to have known Sean. He was a very special person and I pray he is now living in Peace and Light. RIP Sean

One of my fondest memory with Sean is being at Momma Trott’s house as teenagers squabbling over her knickknacks. We were not allowed to touch/play with her collection but of course I couldn’t resist. He would try to stop me so we’d bicker (sometimes laugh) and then get caught and scolded by his grandmother. Rest in peace and light friend.
