Dear O'Leary Family,
What a strong woman, daughter, wife, mother, grandmother and overall good person Helen must have been. Her life story teaches me to never underestimate the power of the human will. Your words about your mother showed that she was a true "gem"of her generation and of your family. She leaves behind quite a legacy in such a wonderful family. May your memories comfort you today and always.

Mrs. O'Leary,
Maam, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
