Sean Truman Knotts, age 31, of Hickory St., Grafton, went to be with the Lord on Saturday, March 2, 2024, at J.W. Ruby Memorial Hospital. He was born Feb. 10, 1993, the son of Eric Scott Knotts and Angela Phillips Knotts Lovejoy.
Sean was a 2011 Graduate of the Fellowship Christian Academy in Grafton and Grafton High School. Sean always excelled in his classes. He was the Math Field Day winner in Taylor County in both fourth grade and fifth grade. He was also the Geography Bee winner in Sixth Grade. He attended Fairmont State University only a short time due to health reasons.
Sean was employed at the Grafton Walmart in the Electronics Department for several years before he had to quit for health reasons. He enjoyed assisting the customers and they appreciated his helpful knowledge and kind smile. Sean loved the many travels that he was able to do with his grandparents, including a Canadian cruise to Nova Scotia and a missionary trip to Alaska. Sean loved driving his Ford Ranger and talking on the phone to his many friends. He loved spending time with his family, including niece, Raelyn, and nephew Truxon. Sean will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
Sean is survived by both parents, two sisters, Alexis Knotts and Olivia Bolliger, all of Grafton. Also surviving are both of his grandmothers and their spouses, Mary Phillips Cauffiel and husband Richard and Debra Knotts Haislip and husband Mike. Sean is preceded in death by his two grandfathers, Clyde Junior Phillips and Larry Knotts.
Sean is a member of the Beulah Baptist Church of Grafton. Sean has had numerous surgeries during his life and God always pulled him through. This time was different. For some unknown reason, he had bleeding on the brain. They had to do surgeries for brain aneurisms. This time God decided that it was time to take Sean to his heavenly home where he will be pain free and have no more suffering.
Family and friends will be received at Bartlett Funeral Home, 202 McGraw Ave., Grafton, from 3-7 p.m. on Thursday, March 7, and Friday, March 8, from 9 a.m. until 11 a.m., the hour of the funeral with Pastor Tom Horne officiating.
