Mike, Sam and Casey, Our hearts are heavy with sadness as we cannot imagine the pain you are truly feeling. If we can take just a moment of that pain away by stating how Sean touched our hearts with joy from the moment we first met as we watched grow from near and far he would play with plastic army men, dinosaurs, cars and pirate swords. He would later love the beach, water pools. Later when Casey came home from the hospital at birth the way Sean looked at Casey as to say I’m your big brother don’t worry we can do this together, the world is not that scary we have each other and awesome parents together we will never give up. I can remember watching Sean look at his Mom and Dad with a smile on his face as they explained life’s rotation. Mike and Sam you have been the best example of what parents could be. You have guided, let live and explained the mistakes a child makes and the consequences but never turning an eye away, always watching and loving your children. May God lessen the sorrow and give you strength in this time of need. Remember this is only but a short separation we shall all have that opportunity to see and share once again in the Kingdom of our God. For the spirit lives on. We love you all.

I did not know Sean, but I did have a few conversations with him. He was a very nice guy with a commanding personality and my heart hurts for the numerous friends of mine that are experiencing this loss. It is clear to me without even knowing him that he had a great impact on those around him and I can tell the island will forever mourn his loss. My condolences go to his family. I thank you for sharing him with the world and I regret not getting to know him better. That is my loss. My condolences also go to his countless friends. Seeing the love pour in him for is wonderful. May you all find peace in this time of sadness and the healing that follows. But for now, let yourself cry and hold each other up. That is what Sean would want. Fr. O’Brien may recite this poem during Sean’s services, but if not, I’ll leave you with an excerpt from “Death is Nothing At All” by Henry Scott-Holland… “Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes that we enjoyed together. Play, smile, think of me, pray for me. Let my name be ever the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without an effort, without the ghost of a shadow upon it”

Please make it threw this and know Sean had another family that is more than willing to help and listen. I day this with much move and respect

There is a quote that says you die twice. Once when your heart stops beating. Then later when your name is said for the last time. If that’s the case, then Sean/Flo Chill will live forever. Always the wild man. Always the gentleman. I heard him play “Mad World” on the piano in a hotel lobby late one night several years ago. It was beautiful. I’ll never, ever forget him. Prayers for comfort and peace to all of his loved ones.

- Amy Akins Moore, Pembroke , Georgia

Mike, Sam & Casey, there are no words to convey our feelings for your loss. Please know that the Hughes family are in our thoughts and prayers. The world has lost such a vibrant young man of whom obviously made a difference in all the lives that he encountered. I imagine the conversations between Mike and Sean may have been similar to the old Cat Stevens song "Father & Son". He was obviously an exceptional Son, Brother, Grandson and Friend.

- Chuck McCallar & Family, Pooler, Ga

My deepest sympathies to Sean's family on their enormous loss. Although my acquaintance with Sean was all too brief I recall he always greeted me as a brother, even going out of his way to say hi and to give me a fist bump whenever he saw me. An intelligent, passionate and very talented man we had several in-depth conversations including one about his love for all things Australasian. He had an intense love of people and I was very fortunate to be somebody that he took an enormous shine too. Sean is indelibly etched upon my consciousness and memories as he is upon the many who were lucky enough to spend time with him.
