Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Sean,

I sit here trying to make sense of all this and I can't. Thankfully, it is not difficult to remember the great times we had working together in the Block and Tact Unit. I will miss you brother.

Your wife and kids will be taken care of.

Your friend,
