Alan Holliday donated £30 in memory of Sean

I just found out about Sean's passing yesterday, and am truly gutted. Sean was far more than just a boat neighbour or passing acquaintance. He was a dear friend, a trusted sidekick in difficult times, and someone who I trusted implicitly to respond with kindness, patience and humour, even when we totally disagreed. It was an honour to have spent so much time with him, drinking tea and beers, and putting the world to rights. I'm so sorry I lost contact for a while, and am utterly crushed that I'll never be able to continue where we left off. My love to Charlotte and family.

  • Dear Alan, thank you so much for taking the time to write and for your lovely words. I'm sorry you only found out recently- I tried to get the news out to everyone but I didn't have contact details for you and hoped that Facebook posts would reach people. I know Sean really enjoyed chatting to you too and he would have loved to have seen you again- so sorry we lost touch. I hope you are well and life is treating you well. Love and thanks, Charlotte x

My heart bleeds knowing that Sean has gone. My heart bleeds further, knowing that Charlotte and the children no longer have their amazing rock in their lives. But we know that through his good deeds and awesomeness, Sean lives on in the hearts and minds of his beloved family and loved ones. Such a wonderful human being! Rest in Perfect Peace, Sean 🙏🏾🥺🕊️

So sorry for your loss. I knew Sean in the late 90s when we were part of the same Buddhist karate group; I remember him as a gentle and kind-hearted soul. A mutual friend (Judith) told me of Sean's passing. It's lovely to see the beautiful photos of him and his family on this site. Sending love.
