Sean Michael MacPherson

Sean Michael MacPherson, 39, of Plymouth, passed away on Friday, Sept. 13. He was born in Weymouth on Oct. 22, 1984, son of Judith E. (Bouchard) MacPherson and the late Michael G. MacPherson, and stepson of Paul R. Keith. Sean was the brother of Seth MacPherson of Plymouth, and Patrick MacPherson and his wife Jill of Plymouth. He was uncle to Michael and Bo Marie MacPherson, and stepbrother of Sherry Keith of Plymouth. He is also survived by his devoted longtime girlfriend Amanda Fasoli, paternal grandmother Gisela Tarantino, as well as many aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Sean grew up in Plymouth and was a graduate of Plymouth North High School class of 2003. He worked for both of his brothers in their landscape, hardscape, and masonry businesses (MAC Landscaping and MacPherson Masonry).  Sean loved kayaking and fishing, as well as video games. He spent many days with his family at their cottage on Billington Sea. Sean also enjoyed fine foods and expensive clothing, and he wasn’t afraid to spend a little more on quality (his family teased him that he had a rich man’s taste on a poor man’s budget).

Sadly, Sean succumbed to his long battle with addiction.  Many, many people tried to help him along the way, and his family is very appreciative to those individuals who went above and beyond to help Sean. Donations in Sean’s name may be made to South Shore Recovery Center, 182 Standish Ave, Plymouth, MA, 02360.  

A visitation will be held at the Cartmell-Davis Life Celebration Funeral Home, 373 Court St., Plymouth, on Monday, Sept. 23, from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m., followed by a service in the funeral home at noon.  Burial will follow in Vine Hills Cemetery, Plymouth, as Sean will be buried next to his Dad.
