Quinn, Sean Ryan 42, died March 7 after a twenty year struggle with addiction. Sean is at last at peace and free from the painful grip of alcohol. He knows we love and hold him in our hearts and minds. Wisdom and truth will guide us thru this difficult time. Sean is survived by his loving wife Kristin, his children Xavier (8), Gwendolyn (4), and Isabella (2), Brother's Bryce and Zachary, sister in law Natalie and mom and dad Linda & Peter. Sean grew up in Lakeland and loved nature and the St. Croix River. Sean graduated from Mounds Park Academy in 1994 and attended the University of Wisconsin Culinary program. He was a noted chef at St. Catherine's creating amazing dishes. Alcohol robbed Sean of the time to enjoy his family and friends and to reach his true calling. We wish we could hold you, laugh and talk and cook together. We wanted so badly to help you heal, love life and show us your beautiful heart. Farewell sweet Sean, we were so blessed to have you in our lives. A celebration of Sean's life to be announced. In lieu of flowers Memorials are suggested to the Retreat of Wayzata.
