Such terrible news! Sean and Loretta are the most caring, Funny, thoughtful and entertaining duo to spend time with. Although I have only known them for a short time, they have treated me like family since meeting them. From drinking at their favourite watering hole in Portsmouth to Working for them at Sean's brothers, there are many happy memories aswell as many special moments we have shared. Sean will be truly missed and my sincerest condolences go to Loretta a truly wonderful person who's heart is so big I can't imagine what she is going through. Say hello to Mike for me Sean, remember to put furniture in inconvenient places to ensure people earn their wages!
Words are just left unsaid. 35 years of ups and downs and around and around never met any one quite like you buddy in so many ways …. You are not we’re but are like the brother I never had. Always full of wisdom, always seeking knowledge. Like The waves on the sea shore you will always be with me not just my heart but in my soul Happy to meet m, Sorry to part. Happy to meet again.
So sorry that Sean had to leave this world so soon. He was a great man & was always a joy to meet up with in the middle of our shopping trip. He will truly be missed by many. Our thoughts & prayers are with his family.

Sean and I bumped into each other at the RCMP Depot about twenty years ago and immediately became friends. I had spent part of my boyhood, and went to school, in Portsmouth and in Southampton so we had that in common right away. That, and we both enjoyed a decent pint of beer and a pork pie!
I travelled vicariously through Sean and Loretta's many visits back to Pompey - they never failed to send me a photo from the pub.
Over the past decade, we three met regularly for breakfast at Smitty's, where we would swap yarns and solve the problems of the world.
Of course, I shall miss Sean dearly.
While I had not known Sean for too long he became a cherished friend and great next door neighbor. I loved his stories and wry sense of humour. I loved his smile he had as he came to the end of a joke he had just told. He had a kind and compassionate spirit and was a great neighbor. He will be dearly missed. Love you Sean. ❤️
I worked with Sean for a short while! Sean's intelligence, quick wit and humor captivated our conversations for hour on end. It led us to a mutual respect and friendship which I will forever cherish and miss!
