It was cute today Alyssa asked Cindy if she could call me and sing me happy birthday on the phone. Cindy let her and she sang happy birthday on the answering machine and then said that she loves me Auntie Missy! That message put tears to my eyes. I am so proud to have those kids apart of our life because there is a piece of Sean living each of them. Those kids will always make Seans memory alive because of the actions and resmblunce of them that we see in them children. We will never ever forget Seans geastures or voice so everytime one of those kids do something that Sean would have done it brings back memories of Sean. We wish you where her to celebrate the new year with your Family. WE know that you didn't meam to go but god must have had a good reason for you.

IT;S NOT FAIR / MARC ROUSSEAU (BROTHER)
well yesterday made the 3 month nark of you leaving us.i felt ya when you knocked down the pic of the kids that was securly on the wall.i know what ya meant and i know it wasn't my decision.may be i should have been a lil more tougher.i think it's strange how people act once something special is taken away.i remember the talk's we had when you were in the hospital.you swore me to never tell and u know i haven't.I was there for u more than anyone cept mom(who feels the worst for losing her BABY!!!)i can't seem to get that last conversation out of my head(and i never want to)when we were talkin about how our family only comes together when shit like this happens.what a shame huh?i think you finally got to see the love eveyone has for you.it's a shame they didn't get to tell you.i remember the day ya left from the shop when i gave ya a hug and kissed ya on the cheek and told ya i love you and ya shoved me and told me you were gonna kick my ass and called me a fag.man i miss ya tellin me that and then runnin.just know lil bro i'll always be there if those lil ones need me.i'm just a phone call away(and that wasn't my choice)i got the chance to tell you to your face how much i loved ya.the new shop is starting to go and i'm sure it's had a lil help from the other side.tell the old guy's i can't wait to see you all and that i thinK about you guys everysingle day. MEMORIES FOREVER BABY....I LOVE YA AND MISS YA EVERYDAY Close
Santa and your kids / Todd (brother)
Sean,
I took your kids yesterday to the lite show in hines park and to see Santa and they got to tell him what they wanted,It was very hard to see, ill tell you that knowing you cannt be here to do it with them, i know your in our hearts,And looking down on the kids but it just isnt good enough for me i want you here and i think that it just isnt fair that your not.
I know life isnt always fair but god damm shit like this is uncalled for that people have to deal with this kinda pain and kids have to grow up with out there dad its bullshit,I just cannt understand life.Its like it gets harder and harder for the ones who try to do good and be good people,it just isnt right.
Well as i read everyones things i just sit here and tears roll down my face knowing the people we love are in such pain, if i could have one wish it would be that this world end all at once so no one ever has to deal with the pain we are dealing with.Then no one would have to suffer lifes unfairness.I know its wrong to say but its how i feel.I looked into your kids eyes this weekend and i say to myself how could this be and why has this happend to someone like you.It really hurts dude.I donnt think it will ever be the same ive lost a lot of myself the day i lost you Sean and i just donnt feel like life means very much to me any more.But i promiss as long as im on this planet or in this shitty place we call life ill do my best to make sure your kids are taken care of and know that there daddy was a great man and a very speical guy that got screwed out of what he wanted most in life and that was to be there for them and it just really really sucks that god did this.
I love You forever and always

Remeberin the a best friend / Melissa Osmon (best friend )
Sean,
Hey there! Its been almot three months now and it is still strange not hearing your voice. Just like it is for everyone else I know that I am not the only one suffering your loss causeed alot of saddness. I myself miss talking to you on the phone our silly conversations that we use to talk about. I belive though that God took you for areason that no one understands down here but he must have needed you for something really special up there becasue you are a really special man. I look at your website everyday and think about you all the time. I still cry when I see your website becasue i can't belive that you are actually gone. Then I read the candles you babies wrote for you a nd that is even worse to see. But we all know that your memorie will live on forever in everyone hearts. For myself i will remeber you as a kind guy that woudl give the shirt of his back or if you had a quarter you would give someone a dime out of it. But thats the kind of guy you where unselfish. Cindy was very lucky ot have you as her husband just like i am to have Dewayne as a husband. Just remember Me and Dewayne will always be here for Cindy your kids and the rest of your family. I just wanted to write this to say that you are still in my thoughts and I still miss you dearly. I love you dearly and miss you so much. I will keep lighting my candle every night in front of you picture and keep praying to you hoping that you can hear me. love you Missy
What Sean has given us / Sarah (Sister-in-Law)Read >>
What Sean has given us / Sarah (Sister-in-Law)
Having read Dewayne's tribute to Sean the tears are falling again here. Just when you think that you may be moving on and there are brief moments where you don't think about it, then something triggers a memory, the pain of loss, and the realization that he is no longer a phone call away. It can be something as small as opening the freezer and seeing the pack of hot dogs Sean bought leftover from cooking out on the Fourth of July (which will probably remain there until the end of time), a song on the radio, or the retreating back of a big guy in a flannel shirt ambling down the street who for a moment feel like you could catch up to and it would be him and this is all been just some horrible joke. We see him in the faces of his children, remember his jokes, mannerisms, and favorite recipes. Life is moving on, but the pain of his loss is still fresh. Tears come so easily these days and I am certain that this Christmas will be different from all the rest for all of us. Losing Sean has woken us up to the fragility of life, the importance of family and friends, and to never pass up the opportunity to say "I love you" to those in our lives. Sean has left a legacy of three beautiful children and an extensive network of friends and loved ones who will forever be changed for having known him. Close
My best friend forever.... / Dewayne Osmon (Best-Friend)
Sean, These past few months have been very difficult for me to deal with. I know that I am not the only one who is going through this, but I am not very good at dealing with your loss. I always thought that I would be the strong one in these situations. But inside I am falling apart. There isnt a day that goes by that I dont see you in my mind or memories. I know that I will keep you, your voice, your friendship, and your memories with me forever. Those arent the problems that I will ever have to deal with from your loss. I know that I will never forget any of our times ect.... The problems I have are bigger to me. I feel like the most selfish man on the planet. I dont know where to start. The first thing that bothers me is at your services. I didnt touch you. I wanted to say goodbye to you with my hands on yours but I knew that I wouldnt be able to handle it. It would have made me break down with your whole family there. I promised myself and missy that I would be strong so I wouldnt make anyone else any worse than it already was. It hurt me so bad to see you like that. It made me want to go crazy. I just have so many unanswered questions that I know cannot be answered. On the phone a few days before you sounded fine. We talked about you finding a new nero-surgeon and you were so happy. We only talked for a few minuites. If I would have known I would have told you how much you meant to me as a friend. And I would have made you stay on the phone forever. I would also like to say that I am sorry for not talking to you much until recently. It was my way of staying strong. I talk to you every night when we light a candle in front of your picture now. I hope that you can hear me cause mosy of the time it is a silent prayer or message. I just want to tell you one more time that you are my best friend. And I really do love you no matter what people may think!!! You were in my dream the other night and we spoke. I remember everything but I dont speak of it. Thank you for being there, and I hope that you alway will be. When it is my turn to come join you Hope that you will open up the gates for me. I will promise to always be there for your wife and children and also your mother and all of your brothers. Please wait for me also along with everyone else that you love. We miss you so very much and will never forget you. When you left, a piece of my heart and soul went with you to heaven and I will never get them back. Dewayne...
We're sure gonna be missin' you tomorrow. I guess the holidays are gonna be the worst. We sure did throw you a big party in Munising! All your friends were there, and we all talked about you and cried. I'll never forget when we played "Wake me up when September ends" and our mom was in the front row with Sarah, Todd, Ramsey and Lee, all of their arms around each other and the tears flowing. It was all for you,Sean. Kate, Joel, Shotwell all chipped in, along with so many others it would take far too long to name them all. Thank you, everybody. And a special thanks to my Brothers in Wrec, without you guys it could never have happened. Full Circle, Mike Waite, Carl Behrend and the "basement band", you guys all sounded awesome, thanks so much for being there. It kind of felt as though it was a final goodbye, and I'm so selfish I never wanted it to end. I wish there was more, Sean. We Love you, and miss you. Tim

Memories and time / Chris Franz (friend of the family )
How blessed and fortunate we are to share our time here with such wonderful souls!
In my experience, there is no cure for the grief and pain for loved ones lost; nor for the void that remains.
Over time, happy memories (and knowing they miss us as much as we miss them) offer comfort. Cherish them, indeed.
Please do not hesitate to call upon me if I can help in any way.
My deepest sympathy for your loss.
Love - Chris Close

Benefit for the family / Tim&Sarah Rousseau (Brother/sis in-law )
I just thought I'd let anyone who did'nt already know , that there will be a benefit for the family of Sean on Saturday Nov.12th, at Shooters in Munising. There will be 5(or more) bands playing, food,raffles,50/50 drawings and silent auctions, with all proceeds going directly to his family. My wife and I would like to especially invite ALL of Seans friends and aquaintances. Even if you have nothing to give to the cause, just your presence and kind words are more than welcome. The festivities will begin at around 3p.m., with acoustic music in the spotlight the first few hours and turning a bit louder in the evening. Tentatively scheduled to play are: Carl Behrend (Sarah's dad), Robin&Dano,257, Full Circle, and my band-Wrec. Local musicians aquainted with any of the above, are also welcome to sit in and jam in the memory Sean. We hope to see as many people as humanly possible crammed into the place. Lets whoop it up in a serious way, one last time-FOR SEAN! See you there! P.S. We've got some unbelievable prizes to get rid of! Tim & Sarah Close
