Sean Marvan Chadwick found eternal peace on July 4th, 2022 in Gilbert, South Carolina. He was born on November 21, 1984 to Michelle Hutchings de Vallarino and Donald Guy Chadwick in Panama City,Republic of Panama. He remained in Panama for his first nine years where he developed his zeal for life, the outdoors, and engaging with everyone he met. While in Panama he attended Los Ríos Elementary School in the Panama Canal Zone.

He moved with his mother and stepfather to Burke, Virginia and attended Kings Glen Elementary and Lake Braddock Middle School. The family relocated across the country to Newbury Park, California where he attended Sequoia Middle School and Newbury Park High School. During these years he played the violin and saxophone at school along with his all time favorite activities baseball and basketball. Not being tall didn’t hold Sean back from being a valued team member on the basketball team. What he lacked in height he made up for with speed and determination.

Sean began traveling unaccompanied at a young age between Panama and the United States. He traveled home to spend time with his father and family members, enjoy the warm weather and outdoor activities. Always the outgoing and charming young man who was eager to start a conversation with strangers, frequently the flight attendants threatened to take this sweet boy home.

During his summers with his dad he learned to love the game of golf. He had a natural talent for it and excelled at the sport. It was a great way to connect with family members and friends who were avid fellow golfers. While in Panama, he also helped out in the family travel agency, Chadwick Travel, and learned to write airline tickets before hitting his teenage years. He proudly played Little League baseball on the team sponsored by Chadwick Travel. Once again, his agility, determination, and enthusiasm played to his advantage.

Upon completion from High School Sean graduated from Professional Golfers Career College in Temecula, California. As it turns out, Information Technology (IT) was another natural gift he possessed. He stayed in California working for several different IT companies before moving to Columbia, South Carolina.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Marvan Guy Chadwick, Alba Davis and Vally Elsa Vallarino de Hutchings; his uncles, Michael Chadwick, Alba “Buddy” Hutchings and William “Billy” Hutchings; his great aunt Gladys Lovis; and his second-cousin Alexander Hutchings.

He is survived by his parents Michelle Isabelle Humphrey and Donald Guy Chadwick; step parents Lloyd Kelley Humphrey and Evelyn Gonzales Chadwick; his daughter and love of his life Noah; half and step siblings Andrew Chadwick, Adalyn Marantino, Casey Humphrey, Victoria Humphrey, and Paige Humphrey; his grandmother Ida Maria Loo de Chadwick; great aunt Doris Lovis; great uncle Carlos Lovis, great aunt and Godmother Dora Vallarino; and aunts Nancy (Tommy) Welch, Mia (Mike) Griswold, and Terra Chadwick; many cousins and friends; and special friend and companion Frances Menendez.

On Sean’s behalf, the family extends their deepest appreciation to Mandi, Noah’s exceptional guardian angel. Family and friends were everything to Sean. His infectious laugh and beautiful smile will be missed by all who were fortunate to know him.
