Sean Jason Murphy

We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Sean Jason Murphy, who departed this life on April 13, 2025, at the age of 50. Born on February 19, 1975, in Boston, MA, Sean was the cherished son of Loretta Andrews and William Andrews. Sean graduated from Randolph High School in June 1994. With a passion for entrepreneurship rooted in his upbringing, he gained early inspiration working alongside his mother, a successful nurse and the proud owner of Oak Haven Nursing Home in Boston, MA. It was during these formative years that Sean developed his strong work ethic and desire to one day become an entrepreneur. In August 2013, Sean graduated from Pro Way Hair School in Stone Mountain, GA. Years earlier, in 2002, he turned his dream into reality by establishing JSean Kutz in Atlanta - a barbershop that quickly became a beloved community hub, where laughter, love, and style came together, and where Sean brought joy and style to countless clients. Sean was a devoted family man, a true friend, and a community leader. In 2000, he moved from Boston to Atlanta, where he built a beautiful life, surrounded by loyal friends, loving family, and his two cherished dogs, Royal and India. His shop wasn't just a business - it was a gathering place filled with warmth, positivity, and soul. He found great joy in fishing, bowling, landscaping, and interior decorating. Known for his love of exotic and luxury cars ('not cheap cars,' he would say with a smile), Sean had an unmistakable sense of style and confidence. He also had a passion for track running in his youth and never lost his competitive spirit. Sean was a man of faith. He gave his life to Christ at Born Again Outreach Ministry in Boston, MA, under Bishop Hessie Lee Harris. His faith was not just personal, it was active. Sean gave back generously by offering free haircuts to underserved youth in Boston and Atlanta. He partnered with nonprofit organizations such as the UHOPE Foundation, Free the Captives Ministry, and Hosea Helps to serve and uplift the community making great impacts. In 2023, Sean brought generations of family together by hosting an unforgettable family reunion at his home in Atlanta. It was a cherished weekend where family from Boston, Schenectady, Philadelphia, and Florida gathered to celebrate love, legacy, and togetherness - a tradition we will continue in his honor. Honestly speaking, Sean-affectionately known as 'Sho Sho', 'Shizz', or simply 'JSean' - was everyone's favorite cousin. That's not just a saying, it's a true statement felt by all who knew and loved him. Sean had a deep love for soul food and grilling, and he even crafted his own signature barbecue sauce that added his personal touch to every meal. Sean leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and excellence. He is survived by his loving mother, Loretta Andrews; his father, William Andrews; and his devoted siblings, Stephanie Daniels, Whitney Andrews Branch (Marty Branch), Tara Andrews, Michelle Spencer (Daryl Spencer), Rayshell Green, Lauren Kincaid. He was preceded in death by his dear siblings, Kyle Andrews and Lisa Daniels, and will be reunited with them in eternal peace. He will also be lovingly remembered by his Uncle Earnest, who was like a godfather to him, as well as countless nieces, nephews, cousins, and close friends who were touched by his spirit. Though we mourn deeply, we also give thanks for the incredible man he was and the joy he brought into our lives. His light will continue to shine through the memories we hold and the love he gave so freely. Funeral services will be held Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 3:00 PM at Scot Ward's Green Meadow Chapel; interment will follow at Green Meadow Memorial Gardens. The family will receive friends Saturday, April 26, 2025, from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM at the funeral home. Condolences may be submitted online at www.scotward.com.
