    Sean was my manager while working at Sam Rust Seafood. He always had a good sense of humor. We shared interest in wrestling, football, and movies. I always respected him for having to make the tough decisions that aren’t always popular, like a good leader does. My condolences to all your loved ones. Rest easy big dog! ✌🏾❤️
