Mr. Rooney,
Sir, I didn't know you but I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Navy 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.

I worked with your Dad at New England Electric for a number of years until his retirement. He was always a gentleman with a great sense of humor. Everyone enjoyed his company.

My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.
