I was deeply saddened by Mrs. O'Gara's death. I have very fond memories of her. Although I have not seen her often since I moved away, I felt close to her spirit. She had a wonderful sense of humor and her laugh was contagious. I was blessed to have known her and am glad that she is now at peace.

I just wanted to say that Carol was a fine lady. She taught me alot during my time working with her in Town Hall. My deepest condolences for the O'Gara family.
