Janine, and your and Sean's entire family, please accept my most sincere and heartfelt condolences for your loss.

Yesterday I posted my memories of Sean but I forgot to add my maiden name, so oh course I have a few more things to say.... I neglected to include Sean was a wonderful grandfather, I loved seeing the pictures on Facebook of Sean eating ice cream with his grandson, Rocco, my heart goes out to him. 

So many memories, how do you write what you are feeling.... First I feel sorrow and pain for Janine to loose the love of her life so quickly there is nothing I can say to ease that,  keep your memories close.... Next my memories of a sweet sweet boy who turned into a wonderful father and husband....our younger years were filled with plays, shows, parties, walking the streets of Levittown and falling in love.... Sean you will be greatly missed I know you are so proud of your Irish heritage, as am I, so I will end this with a excerpt of an Irish poem... May the road rise up to meet you, May the wind be at your back and until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand.

Sean was a star from the moment he walked into my music classroom in1967, singing Cockles and Mussels with three of his friends.  He was a wonderful musician, actor and athlete.  As he grew up we became friends and fellow cast mates in numerous productions.  I feel like a part of my soul has left this world.   All my love and sympathy to Janine and the family.

Sean and I played soccer with Levittown Memorial HS throughout our High School years. Always had a smile on his face. A good man and a good team  mate. 

Sean was my best friend for a lot of years...none better. I remember hitchhiking to the demolition derby together...such a funny thing to come to mind...such a different time!  Memories of sitting together and harmonizing while he played the guitar...a bond I never achieved with another, will be with me forever. He was a fine human being with an embracing heart. I will never forget you pal. Janine, you were both so lucky to have found each other, and I am holding you in my heart.

My sincerest condolences to the Rooney Family on the passing of Sean. I remember chatting with him and his wife at our 40th high school reunion and always considered him an extremely smart, talented, athletic and classy guy from our LMHS Class of 73'.  

Dear Janine & family,

We are sooo sorry for your loss and offer you our condolences and prayers.   We will always remember  Sean's  barbecuing and his guitar playing.   Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.    

Love, Dolph and Desi Corradino   

So sorry to hear of Sean’s passing. I have great memories of him and his guitar playing the latest Paul Simon tunes with us singing along. Terrific times together in our theater company too! Condolences to Janine and the entire family.
