2nd Chance

It has been over a week since the audiobook, Live Like Sean, was released, and again, I am humbled by the response. Hearing Sean’s stories may be even more powerful than just reading them. When you hear Jack Ford’s recognizable voice, these stories truly come to life. A former colleague of mine even remarked that she felt like she could look over and see Sean's grin as he talked about a Yankees' win or hear [...]

A Truly Sad Day

As we approach the two-year anniversary of Sean’s death, I am still in disbelief that he is gone. So much has happened since that fateful Father’s Day morning in 2019. Some days it feels like ten years have passed since we were together. Then I see something that reminds me of Sean, the emotions come rushing back, and I feel like it was just yesterday that he was here. I know you never get over [...]

Happy Birthday Sean

Today would have been Sean’s 31st birthday. Most likely, we would have spent the day at a Yankees’ game or possibly riding bikes down the shore. There most definitely would have been cake, and smiles, and laughter, and did I mention cake. This year, similar to last year, there will be less laughter and smiles as we continue to miss Sean dearly. However, there is a reason to put a smile on our faces, and [...]
