Officer Collier had the eyes of a compassionate soul and he appeared to have the desire to "do the right thing" and stand for justice. It is so unfortunate that such a young man with great promise is no longer a member of the MIT community. On that tragic night, he stood tall in the face of grave danger and made the ultimate sacrifice. May the Lord comfort his family and friends. Peace be with them at this time.

A friend and a classmate. You'll be missed by many and forgotten by few.

I'll always remember our race up 93 to the NH rest area in bumper to bumper traffic. Tires smoking and a everyone on the road yelling at us. To be young foolish....

Thanks for looking down on us

To the Collier family I leave this thought -- Although Sean is physically gone from this world, his memory will live on in the hearts and minds of those who knew and loved him. The following poem was written by Clare Harner Lyon:

Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunshine on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
