Sean Speed, 35, of Dayton, Nevada, passed away on February 7 in Virginia City, Nevada, doing what he loved most.
Sean was born on December 21, 1990, in Redding, California, to Lucy Speed and Gregory Speed.
Sean spent his life deeply connected to his family and his passions. He had a lifelong love for cars and anything with an engine, and he felt most at peace outdoors—on his bike or out on the boat. He was also a founding member of the Sierra Wheelers Off Road Group, helping to build a strong community of like-minded off-roaders who shared his love for adventure and camaraderie.
He was known for his unwavering loyalty and genuine compassion. If Sean met you, you weren't just a friend—you were family.
He is survived by his wife, Stephanie Brewer; his daughter, Aryanna Speed; his son, Dash Speed; his mother, Lucy Speed; and his siblings, Lance Speed, Paul Speed, Marc Speed, and Jennifer Fuselier Speed.
Sean was preceded in death by his father, Gregory Speed, as well as Lori Turnipseed, Carol Higginbotham, and Makita.
Ride in peace, Sean Speed. We miss you.
