I shall never forget Sean's 5th grade interpretation of Banquo's ghost, complete with makeup. Kathy Cafasso

Sean was one of the best guys in high school- so smart and kind. I hadn’t talked to him since then but have great memories 

Music brought us together,
Years separated, elastic time,

From Earth you're now untethered,
Released into the celestial sublime,
I am glad we talked a few weeks ago,
Each of our conversations treasured,
Non-instrumental jam partner a-go-go,
Dance space sacred, when ever better,

Smart and funny, always kind,
Experiments we conducted for the science,
An old man says in the final rewind,
No shame in the rage of defiance.

My thoughts and prayers to the entire Kessler family. 
Deepest sympathy on you loss.

Sending thoughts and condolences from DAS Health!

Sean was an integral part of the DAS Team (formerly ITelagen LLC) since September 2018.  Sean was a cloud infrastructure mastermind, loyally committed to our cloud hosting clients and always seemed to be able to find a path through complex issues. He was devoted to his teammates on the Cloud Hosting Team and a partner to many throughout the organization. 

Sean will be greatly missed.


My condolences go out to your family.  I have worked with Sean over the past 5 years and it was an honor to have known him.   He was an intelligent man with a fun attitude and he could always make the room laugh, he will not be forgotten. 


Sean possessed a truly kind soul, deep intelligence, and an uncanny knack for cutting to the core of any matter. This was evident in his work, like the time he hopped on a call between two vendors and within ten minutes, cracked a problem that had them stumped for 2.5 hours. Even in personal life, he had a way of pinpointing the real issue, like when he realized my work stress was more about upcoming wedding plans.

He impacted more lives than we can count, and we're all so lucky to have had him in our lives. He will be deeply missed, leaving behind a void that reminds us of the irreplaceable presence we've lost.

Sending you all my love and condolences! Sean was an amazing person and I can’t even been to imagine this loss for you all. 

Being at your house often growing up - I saw the same sense of humor in you all, including the many pranks being played, which often meant scaring me and Kel. But also the love you all have for each other - the closeness was always shown.

May you rest easy Sean

Sending our sincere sympathies in the loss of your son, brother, and uncle. Sean was an amazing person who will truly be missed. 

Rest in peace Sean

From our first Phish show together on 5/28/2011 to our last on 7/28/2023, almost 60 shows together... We always enjoyed ourselves! Your happy place was at a show, so many memories. Blaze On Sean Blaze On!


Shortly after Kelly and I became friends at 9 years old, our families followed suit and bonded forever. And even though I was his little sister’s dorky friend, Sean always had a smile for me. I have so many happy memories from the Halloween parties when Sean and his friends would make a scary walk-through in the woods for Kelly and our friends (I was always too scared to go) to the Christmases our families spent together. 
I was in awe of his artistic talent and always loved looking at the mural he made for Kelly’s room. Sean was such a special person, and I feel blessed to have known him. 
Rest easy, friend. You will always have a special place in my heart. 

It's impossible to fully explain who Sean was and what he meant to everyone in such a concise way, but I will try from my perspective.

I met Sean indirectly through my brother via a computer platform I created while in high school. I then met him in person while he was still in high school. He used to frequent my computer business in Sussex, via bike. He always had an affinity for technology which initially drew us together and began our friendship. Not too long after meeting him, we worked together at Tellurian for many years. I witnessed first hand a highly talented, brilliant, and artistic mind. Amazingly, this mind was balanced and commanded by the soul of a generous, hard working, humorous human being. Sean showed exemplary leadership in every role, fast thinking and a cool head under pressure. Most importantly to me, he was a wonderful friend and human being. We spent countless hours over lunch and literally working side by side. He constantly enjoyed being challenged and never stopped learning. I recall having many intellectual conversations about life, philosophy, and technology. Much more fun were the countless humorous stories Sean would share with me about family, friends, and himself. It was always clear how important the people in his life were to him. I have countless memories of Sean, but no matter which I think of to share, none can fully encapsulate the vastly dynamic person he was.

I will deeply miss Sean, but will fully cherish all of the wonderful memories of our friendship we formed together over the years.

You will be sadly missed.  Such a great guy. A unique soul. So many great memories. God bless and prayers to the family. Much love The Liu crew

Remembering Sean from our days at Tellurian Networks. He took a chance on me when few would, showcasing his enormous heart. Sean was a brilliant mind, always dedicated, and his humor was a beacon of light on the toughest days. I am deeply grateful for the time we shared and the lessons he taught me. My thoughts and prayers are with his family during this difficult time. He will be dearly missed but never forgotten.

All my best,

James Deck

In the intricate tapestry of life's journey, countless souls cross our path, yet Sean's essence remains unparalleled. A decade and a half ago, Sean opened the doors to Tellurian for me, forever altering my trajectory. Even at 26, his brilliance and mastery elevated him to a league of his own. More than a leader, he became a confidant and friend. Our shared journey wove threads of dedication and lighthearted pranks, such as the playful car key caper where we moved his car like it was stolen and the memory of him rushing into the data center as water cascaded from above, heroically unplugging power cords to safeguard the system. Sean's camaraderie knew no bounds, extending far beyond office confines. Amid these treasured recollections, one day stands radiant - our expedition to Skirmish, a day awash with vibrant splashes of paint and echoing laughter. Sean, your memory remains enshrined in our hearts, an enduring presence that transcends both personal and professional realms, forever etched and indelible.
