Happy Birthday in Heaven, Sean...The big 60 you would have been. I didn't and would never forget your birthday! Things are really, really crazy in America and it's not the America you knew and gave your life for! God bless you for giving your life to this country. I know I will see you again one day. <3

Hello Sean, 36 years ago you died. Time sure has passed by really fast. I think about you every single day. There is something in each day that always reminds me of you. You would not believe the crap that is going on today in this country... You would be so angry and disappointed with American leaders and politicians. I can't believe you lost your life defending this country. Still, I know you would do it all over again because you loved your country. Thank you for visiting me in my dreams <3

Sean, Today marks 35 years that you left us, to be with God. Time has passed so fast! I think about you nearly every day. In the short time that I knew and loved you, you made such deep impressions on me that have lasted my entire life. Your words, your way of thinking... Your memory will live forever in my heart, mind, and soul. Thank you for being a part of my life Sean. <3

SPL... You are not forgotten. <3 I uploaded new photos of you that your sister Shannon was kind enough to send me. Memorial Day weekend '83 will always be so very special. Thank you my love.

I loved my friend, he was a helluva man. I was in the Marine Corps in DC and met Sean through his sister Heather. I will remember him wild on motorcycle, or doing back flips into his apt complex pool at Bragg. My last visit with him was in the hospital at Walter Reed, but I will remember the ass kicking name taking bar dancing laughing man he was. Memorial Day reminds me annually of Sean

Sean, So happy these days... Your beautiful sister Shannon and I have connected through one of your brothers Todd Harris. Technology today is amazing and just think we were a part of this transition being in the Tele-Communication's field... You would love it! ;-) Anyway, I sure do miss you. I never forgot your face, when Shannon gave me your pictures it was just like that one day when you walked into the PX, the same big, beautiful smile.Thank you for loving me. I <3 u.

Hello Lisa. I was a brand new LPN assigned to Walter Reed Army Medical Center Surgical ICU in December 1983. Sean was one of my first patients; if not my first. Today I was telling my mom about him. About how his First Sergeant and Commander came in and awarded him the purple heart and promoted him to SGT. They pinned his stripes to his pillow. Very emotional for me now. I hope all is well with you. God bless!

I'm sorry. I hope you know this. I finally spoke to your father....I miss you. I don't live in the past.....I just have my regrets. Sean, you made me realize that there are wonderful men on earth. You were one of them. I am a different person because of you. You are the most courageous man that I have ever known. It will be 29 yrs since you passed. However you are still alive in my heart.

remembering Sean

February 8, 2013

I served with Sean in the signal battallion and when I was deployed to the Sinia in 1983 I would call back to Ft Bragg on the tac sat and get Sean to call my future wife on the phone he would then use Rwi to allow us to talk of course Sean had to listen in. I will never forget him he was a friend My wife and I made a group to Washington in 2008 and when we went Arrington well all I'll say is that the grass got watered that day where I sat and sat it was like I couldn't leave and Yes he will forever be missed.
