Your Dad was such a kind man who had great pride in his children. He always took the time out to stop and say Hello to everyone. I will remember him for his friendly & funny personality. Keep your chins up and always remember to keep laughter in your lives.

Dear Kimmy, Jimmy, Kerry, and Erin
I am so sorry to hear the sudden loss of your Dad. As you know I too lost my Dad this year...The pain is just too much to bare. The unconditional love of a parent is irreplaceable, and will surely be missed on a daily basis. Try to stay strong....and please know that you are all in my prayers.... anytime you need to talk, I am here.
Love, Janice

Dear Kimmy,Jimmy,Kerry Erin:
The untimely loss of your father is such an incredibly unbelievable and sad thing for even me to comprehend just yet. My prayers, thoughts & love are with all of you and I can only hope that time will help to heal your hearts. He was a great uncle to me as well as all of our 20+ other cousins and so very funny all the time! I will never forget all the sleepovers we had at your house when we were kids and how he let us jump on the bed while he was sleeping in it (and NEVER got mad at us) I don't ever remember him in a bad mood and always had to coolest toys (who else had a uncle who had a real pinball machine, pacman game and air hockey table in his basement? I will always remember him for his never ending kid-like personality, generousity and awesome sense of humor. He would do anything for THE KIDS! I guess because he was just a big kid himself. Even as an adult he was still so giving and I will never forget the party bus he gave to me for my bachelorette party 3 years ago. There is no doubt in my mind that Rory, Keiran,Phelim & Kaya have been cheated from having more time with their grandfather. I'm here for ANYTHING you guys need and you know our entire family is too. I wish I could take away your pain but your dad will LIVE FOREVER in your hearts, minds and memories as he will in mine. Love you all! Love & sympathy, Colleen

Dear, Kerry, Erin, Kimmy & Jimmy,
I am so truly sorry for your lose. Your Dad was a great guy who raised a terrific group of kids. Rory, Keiran, Phelim & Kaya have been blessed to have had an adoring Grandfather. I find comfort looking in all of your faces and the faces of your children and seeing your Father's smile. It lights up your faces in the same way it did his. It will always be a wonderful reminder of him. I know things will be difficult for you all but I am glad that you have each other to lean on in your hour of need. Again, I am deeply sorry.
Your friends,
