I LOVE YOU BROTHER,YOU WILL BE DEEPLY MISSED.PLEASE WATCH OVER ME,AND I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN ONE DAY.STILL PROUD TO BE YOUR BRO!

[Something has got to give!]

Have the police checked the gas station's video camera? Were other people buying gas when the incident occurred? I hope someone comes forward for the sake of the family and friends' sake! Something has got to give with this senseless wave of violence within our communities! For the person that believes they did something "cool" and got away with it, G*D saw you and you will surely answer for your crime! To the family, blessings upon you for peace during your bereavement!

Sean, I love you. We've always been less like cousins and more like brother and sister. I'll always remember the good times cuddie! I love you and will miss your crazy self. I know you're with grandma-ma, she'll take care of you.

Sounds like he was targetted and excecuted. To walk up and shoot him while he is simply pumping gas, he was targetted for a reason. I'm sure the police checked the gas stations camera system if they had one. Alot of businesses don't have them or they are broke.

Is it possible he may have been visting a girl in that area?
i hope detectives have looked in to that , was there a jelous 3rd party involved?

Sean was an awesome person very kind and good hearted , He always had a smile on his face and something to say to put a smile on youre face
and even thow he's in a different place im shure that smile is still there , and none of us will forget him

Saying he'll be missed is an understement

Guns! people say that guns don't kill people, that people kill, thats not so.Take the gun away and your left with what god gave you empty hands. Guns give to much power to anyone who has one,law enforcement included. Cowards are everywhere.
I LOVE YOU SEAN,AND WILL REMEMBER ALL GREAT TIMES WE HAD TOGETHER! FRIENDS FOR LIFE! B
