Police Officer Sean Louis Callahan

Miss you buddy, think of you all the time. I remember my brother busting one of our parties in uniform joking around then asked for a beer after scaring off half the party. You had mentioned after that my brother inspired you to want to become an officer one day I thought surely that would pass. Heard on the radio one day why hwy 75 was closed for dozens of miles for a fallen officer Sean Callahan and was like hey I know someone with that same name (we hadn’t spoken in a few years having moved forward into our adult lives) but then they said to bring him home to Cobb county and I was like uh oh.. looked on your Facebook page and saw it was you, I didn’t even realize you had followed through til finding out you made it, read into your story and you were determined, even went out it pocket and out of preferred zone to gain experience. You were such a good human and determined officer and funny friend. When I was the new kid transferring mid year into Lassiter early 2000’s you welcomed me without having to haze me first like the rest. You got the jokes no one else did and silently laughed with an contagious smile. You were too good to have lost as a friend, and would have become the right kind of officer. There’s no happy outlook to ease this pain it was a tragedy that need not be diminished with toxic positivity for the comfort of the living. I miss you wish we could catch up.
