I would see Sean with Grandpa Schmader when he would come into the Sheriff’s Office. What a great kid and joy to visit with. Sean had a heart the size of the moon. Sean take care of your Mom and Grandpa and Grandma Schmader. You blessed with you presence.
Andy and family
So sorry for the loss of your brother. Cherish your memories.
Sorry to hear about your loss
Andy, Amy, aunt Jean and family
We are very sorry to hear of Sean’s passing. Andy, I have a lot of memories from our childhood and am grateful I got to grow up with you and Sean. Sean was always such a sweet person. Our hearts go out to you at this difficult time.
I was very surprised and saddened to hear Sean had died. I got to know Sean and his grandparents when I lived in Warren years ago. I met them at St. Joseph’s Church and shared many experiences with Sean in Boy Scouts and Special Olympics. We became friends and Sean even gave me the honor of being his confirmation sponsor. Sean was very sweet and engaging…a brilliant conversationalist! Slow to anger and rich in kindness, he was. And persistent! I also got to know Bill and Charmaine…they were such interesting and wonderful people. I have a picture of Charmaine standing with Sean at the cemetery when we made a visit and planted some flowers on Bill’s grave. They were all very special people that I will always remember fondly…
Sean and Andy were such an important part of my childhood and memories. Aunt Jean would always bring them to family activities which I always looked forward to. Sean was always so kind and fun to be around. He always had such a sense of wonder and amusement. I think him watching the Gonzalez’s together gave him plenty to be amused about 🙂 We will all miss you Sean but we know that you are with your loved ones now and watching over your loved ones here! We love you Sean!!
