Mary Beth and Ann,I am so very sorry to hear of your loss.
Mr. Fay was one of my favorite people to deal with at my old job because you always knew what he expected and that he expected it because he loved his daughter. He was an impressive man, an honorable man, and a great example to the rest of us dad's.

Mr. Fay,
Sir, I didn't know you, but I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served during the Korean War and secondly for the citizens of Brookline when you served with the BPD. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
