Sean’s Path serves to honor and fuel the legacy of my youngest son, Sean Stutman, who passed away unexpectedly just before his 8th birthday, in July of 2022. While in the world, Sean was on a path of hope, faith, light, and joy. He exuded these qualities and inspired others wherever he went. The aim of Sean’s Path is to continue to bring his light to the world and move us all along a path that is closer to our families, closer to each other, closer to the core of what life is about, and closer to God. While Sean’s death was untimely, his life was indescribably brilliant. Born with Down’s Syndrome, Sean accomplished many things in his short life that most people will never, including winning a State Capital Bee at age 6 (vs. Middle Schoolers and High Schoolers), running a mile 6 days per week, attending Mass almost every week of his life, and completing an overnight backpacking expedition on the Appalachian Trail.Sean’s Path initiates programming and supports organizations and initiatives that fueled his unique path in 3 core areas: Faith, Breaking Boundaries, and Adventure.
