Sean was born on June 25, 1969 in Bartlesville, OK to Billye Maxine (Tanksley) Vincent and Hugh Ronald Vincent and passed away on September 30, 2024 in Bokoshe, Oklahoma. He was preceded in death by his father Hugh Ronald Vincent, grandparents V.E. “Cotton” and Opal Tanksley, Hubert “Hugo” and Vera Vincent, and aunts Connie Jo Tanksley, and Joy Arter
Sean loved to play dominoes with his family, even when they would stack the dominoes so he would win during his birthday parties. He won numerous gold, silver, and bronze medals in the Special Olympics, and loved to down hill ski and intertubing on the bunny slopes.
Sean was an avid OU fan, he never missed a game, and when they would lose he would always say “wait till next time!”
Sean never complained, even if he was in great pain. He always trusted in the lord and has always been in God’s loving hands.
