Sean Patrick Horton

Sean Patrick Horton, 38, of Orange TX passed away on Friday, September 8th, 2023. Visitation will be from 1-3 pm on Saturday, September 16th, 2023, with services immediately following at 3 pm at Claybar Funeral Home in Orange, TX. Officiant will be Reverend Stephen Hudnall.
Sean was born in Orange, TX on May 5, 1985. He was the son of Patrick Horton and Ann Buxton. He was a life-long resident of Orange, TX. He was a member of the Little Cypress Mauriceville graduating class of 2003. He also obtained an associate degree in Instrumentation from Lamar State College Orange in 2018. He was a member of BridgePoint Fellowship since 2017. Sean was a loyal and dedicated family man that loved to tell anyone who would listen how he had married the love of his life and how his daughters were his pride and joy. He was sharp witted and not one to hold back, never missing an opportunity to jump in with a quick remark that would have everyone laughing. Sean was a hard worker and he never let anything stand in the way of accomplishing a goal. When he wasn’t working to support his family, he enjoyed listening to music from Conway Twitty to Pink Floyd to Dr. Dre, and was always down to have a good time. He had a passion for cars, anything from a broken-down powder blue Honda Civic to red classic Mustangs. He was extremely mechanically and technically minded, which made him a natural problem solver. He loved his friends and family and would drop everything to help them any way that he could. Sean lived a life that left a mark on the world. His impact will never be forgotten.
