My Condolences
Precious, precious memories of you, Sean, and the kids…
Flashing back to 2005, when you and Sean helped us breathe life into this old house after we first moved to Lincoln. I’ll never forget working in that gutted shell—freezing cold days warmed by bonfires (burning house trash just to stay cozy during breaks), endless packed sandwich lunches, and Sanka coffee in hand. Then came summer, when the kids swam while we kept at it. Wasn’t there even a broken ankle somewhere in the mix? 🤦♀️🛼
You taught me how to make your famous taco soup—crock pot plugged into extension cords snaking across the house—and I still make it with love. And Sean and Mike’s legendary “Dr. Weber BAAM.” invention? I’ll giggle about that forever.
So many laughs. So many late nights and long weekends. That season forged a friendship I will always hold dear. My heart aches for you, sweet friend. We love you both deeply and are praying for your comfort and peace in the days ahead.
If you need anything—anything at all—Mike and I are here.
OMG where do I begin. I first met Sean while working with him on a project at Miller Steam Plant. It wasn't long after working with him we became more than co workers we became friends. Though I hadn't met Melissa yet it always made me smile when we talked about her. You couldn't help but to like her even before you knew her. I remember he brought some monkey bread to work and always shared with everyone.
Our daily meetings was so much more than just a daily huddle it was a time to talk not only about the job but we always spoke about our family. Sean never hesitated to help out anyone and there were few times he had to help me with vehicle issues. If
we worked late he always made sure that I let him know I made it home safely. He is probably the only person who ever got me to say GO DAWGS. I can see him now smiling ear to ear. He had a heart of
gold and will be missed by many. Fly High My Dear
Friend. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Sean always made me feel like family, since day one of meeting yall. The best times were always the football parties, and floating the creek. I never saw him mad, or when he wasn't smiling. He will always be one of my favorite people. I will forever be grateful of crossing paths, even if it was just a little while. We love you guys big ❤️
The one and only time I met you in person is the day this picture was taken . It was March 2024 to be exact at tropical smoothie cafe a place me and my momma wanted to try. Momma and missy picked up where they left off pretty much. Needless to say you had the biggest smile just spending time with missy, momma, and I. Fly high in heaven with grandma and grandpa!! I’ll forever say go dawgs!!!! But definitely a lot louder now. Until we meet again. Watch over all of us.
I’m sure gonna miss you Sean Mann. Your such a great person and I loved giving you hell on game days between Alabama and Georgia.. I’m gonna miss you giving it right back to me. I would normally say ROLL TIDE, but this time imma send you home with a Big “GO DAWGS”. I love you Sean Mann… REST EASY MY GOOD FRIEND 🕊️️ 🫶🏽
It would be an understatement to say that I wouldn’t be where I am today without Big Sean. He was the one who told me and another friend to go down to the local union hall and join. I honestly don’t know where’d I’d be without that simple guidance.
One memory that I’ll will always carry with me is on the day my mom passed away, I was at work. Upon receiving the news I was an absolute mess and Sean, unprompted, scooped me up in a giant hug and just held me until I could halfway compose myself. He was a great man and he will be missed. My condolences to his family. I am truly sorry for your loss.
