Sean Townshend Black, 32, of West Long Branch, passed away on Sunday, April 21, 2024 from Cardio-Renal Syndrome, a complication of his End-Stage Renal Disease, after an 18-year struggle with Type 1 Diabetes, depression and drug addiction.
Despite his ongoing health battles, he was consistent with his love for the things about which he was passionate. He was a tall, magnificent hugger who loved all things historic, reading, debating politics, animals, mini golf, the beach, his nieces and nephews, and having fun with his entire extended family, particularly during our annual trips to LBI. Sean was a brave person who cared deeply about human rights, passionately defended his principles, and stood up for people in need.
