Send a Tribute

Sean is survived by his parents, Laverne Gouthreau and Brian & Gloria Gouthreau; children: Courtney (Russ), Tyler and Halle (Brad); siblings: Stacey Murkin, Colleen Murkin and Sandra Gouthreau; and grandchildren: Knox and Locklyn as well as several nephews.

Sean is survived by his parents, Laverne Gouthreau and Brian & Gloria Gouthreau; children: Courtney (Russ), Tyler and Halle (Brad); siblings: Stacey Murkin, Colleen Murkin and Sandra Gouthreau; and grandchildren: Knox and Locklyn as well as several nephews.

He was predeceased by his brother, Ryan Murkin; and grandparents: Ed & Iris Gouthreau, Oriville & May Lee and Flo & Ed McDonald.

Sean was born and raised in Lethbridge before moving to Coalhurst in 1999. An enthusiastic fisherman, he spent countless hours either boating with his grandfathers or casting from the shore. Sean was known for his strong work ethic and loved his job at the Town of Coalhurst, where he formed lasting friendships. Those close to him affectionately called him “Seanny Cash.” He was also a devoted member of the Coalhurst Legion Branch #273 for many years.

A friend to all, Sean had a warm, outgoing, and generous spirit. His dedication to volunteering was evident in the countless hours he devoted to supporting his community. It would be hard to find a Coalhurst resident who didn’t have something positive to say about him.

Above all, Sean was a devoted son and took great pride in being a grandfather to Knox and Locklyn. His friends will miss him greatly.

A Celebration of Sean’s life will be held at the COALHURST LEGION, 5205 – 6 Street, Coalhurst, AB, on Saturday, February 15, 2025 from 12:00 Noon to 3:00 P.M.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Coalhurst Legion.

Dear Laverne I am sorry to hear of the passing of your son, Sean. I remember when our Sheila and your Sean were babies and I would come over in the afternoon for coffee and a visit. When they were old enough we sat out on your front lawn and had the little kids pool out for them. We did these visits 3 or 4 times before Bob and I and the children moved to Red Deer. These were good memories for me. I have had a few conversations with you through the years and I did enjoy talking to you. Thinking of you so much at this time Laverne.

I was sad to learn of Sean's passing. I can't imagine the incredible loss his family must be feeling. Sean was such a loving person who always wore a smile on his face. Whenever we crossed paths he was so welcoming and happy to chat. He was always the first to jump in to help anyone and was so funny and engaging to be around. I truly hope that your fond memories of Sean give you some peace during this difficult time. He will be missed by many and lived a life worth remembering. Something you all can be proud of. Deepest condolences.
