We celebrated our 30 year class reunion this weekend and I had just learned of Sean's passing.  I lost touch with so many folks when I joined the Navy.  This was a huge reminder to reconnect and stay connected to the people who mean so much to us.  I have so many great memories of Sean and I thank God for them.  We miss ya bro!

Sean was my first crush when I moved to Springboro in fourth grade, and he knew about it, too! I thought he was such a handsome and sweet person. Those were the days of notes passed in class and friends telling other friends that someone liked you. He was in my class. I also have a memory of the day the principal came on the PA system to have everyone take a moment to think of Sean because his father had passed away. It has been so long I can't remember the details but remember how I felt so sad for Sean and his loss. I never got to know him well, but he seemed like a peaceful spirit. The memories I hold of him are from elementary school, so there's a sweet innocence about that time. My prayers go out to your family that they stay well and find peace from the happy memories of your life, Sean. Much love always.

So very sad to hear of this loss. A really a great person who I have fond memories of.

Sean was like a brother to me when I had nothing and no one. At a time in my life when i didn't deserve a friend he was my only one. He was honest, caring and funny. We shared a lot of fun and crazy times together, and I'll never forget. I hope he finally found the happiness he deserved. So long buddy, I hope to see you again in heaven.Love and miss you.

May God bless you Spanky and may you rest in peace. You were always such a nice and friendly guy.

I am saddened and heartbroken to hear of your loss! You will not be forgotten. May you rest in peace Spanky!

My heart goes out to your parents old friend, I sure wished they didnt have to feel the pain of losing a child. I am right there with them... So my thoughts and prayers are high and many for them and my feelings of your passing are deep.... You are loved by so many... My not so fondest memory of you is also my fondest. It's of you wiping the gym floor with me in 7th grade on the wrestling mat... I had beat out everybody I had come up against, and then like lighting, you had me flipped around and pinned, I didn't even know what happened it was over so fast.... But hey good sir, we cant win them all and you reminded me of that, even when my head hung low, we shook hands and I respected your abilities, Thank you for giving me that... a life lesson, even though you may fall and fail at something, you just have to focus, pick yourself back up, try again and keep moving forward. "Rest In Peace Spanky"

My heart breaks, I am so sad to hear that you are gone. You will not be forgotten. You will be missed. R.I.P. Sean "Spanky".

sooo sad to hear that you've gone. We had lots of fun times together and great laughs. You are in my thoughts and will be missed.

To many good times to remember and the statues of limitations hasn't ran out on some so shhhh....sorry to be saying goodbye at to early of a time....you will be missed

God bless you, old friend. No matter how hard I tried, I could never beat you in a foot race, and I tried often! You will be missed, but the memories last forever.

I can't believe your gone. I will remember the old days with ya forever in my heart. And your love for Def Leopard Hysteria!! Miss you!

Spanky left Spanky right. The only two plays the Pee Wee Panthers had. I will miss you buddy
