Sean David Bush
It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Sean David Bush, age 50, who died at his home in Auburn Township on Jan. 17, 2025.
Born on Feb. 10, 1974, Sean was the beloved son of Donna L. (nee Horton) and the late Blaine J. Bush.
Sean is survived by his loving wife of 19 years, Kelly Lyn (nee Hall) Bush and their son, Nicholas M. (Makayla Hart) Judd, and daughter, Isabella K. Bush.
He is also survived by his brother, Todd (Andrea) Bush; and his nieces and nephews, Claire, Brady and Leah Bush.
Sean will be dearly missed by his extended family, including his in-laws, Barbara Hall, Tim Wenzel, Toni (Brett) Erzen and Dianne (Mike) Hawk.
Sean had a deep love for the outdoors, with two places that held a special place in his heart: The Four Corners Hunting Camp in Tidioute, Pa., and the Grubb Hole Cottage in Wellsboro, Pa. These were his “1A and 1B” favorite spots, second only to home. He cherished the time spent there hunting deer, turkey, grouse, pheasant, small game and black bear, as well as trout fishing, which brought him peace and exhilaration.
More than anything, he valued the memories made with family and friends during these unforgettable moments in nature.
He also loved to cook, often preparing delicious meals for family and friends, and spent many hours “tinkering” in his barn, finding satisfaction in projects that allowed him to connect with his hands and his passions.
Sean was a kind-hearted and generous soul who touched the lives of everyone who knew him. His love for his family and friends, and his ability to bring people together, will always be remembered.
He was a faithful employee of IMS Company as the distribution manager in Auburn Township for nearly 20 years.
The family hosted a gathering to celebrate Sean’s life on Jan. 24, 2025, at Burr Funeral Home, 116 South St., Chardon.
The family suggests donations be made to St. Jude Children’s Hospital, www.stjude.org; or NWTF National Wild Turkey Foundation, www.your.nwtf.org.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Burr Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Chardon. Condolences and memories may be shared online at www.burrservice.com.
