My deepest sympathy to Ida and all of the O'Connor family. It was always a great pleasure to meet up with Wilf at many of the Irish community functions around town. He was a great supporter of such events and his positive energy and outlook greatly added to many a room. As someone involved in the organising of some of these events it was great morale booster to have people like Wilf and Ida always ready to support. He was a super friendly gentleman and no doubt a great Ambassador for Dublin and Ireland throughout his entire time here in Canada. He will be missed. Sincere sympathies to you all.

Deepest sympathy to Ida, Deirdre, Brian, Oonagh and extended family on Wilfred's passing. We remember his and Ida' trips home to Ireland every few years, which always involved a visit to us in Cavan. Thinking of you all at this sad time. May he Rest in Peace.

Dear Ida, My heart aches with yours.
I pray that a lifetime of warm memories will give you comfort and strength. I have very fond and lasting memories of tennis and euchre at Curran Hall with you and Wilf.

Mr. And Mrs. O'Connor and their 3 children lived on the same street, Vauxhall Drive and so did my parents, Bob and Theresa Copland, my
2 sisters, Carol and Laura, and my brother, Don. The 4 of us also attended St. Lawrence Catholic School as did Deidre, Brian, and Oonagh. We all became great neighbours and spent many times together over the years. Mr. O'Connor was a very kind and friendly person. He always had a wonderful smile and a positive attitude. My most sincere sympathy to Mrs. O'Connor, Deidre, Brian, Oonagh, and their families. May Mr. O'Connor rest in peace. Thinking of all of you at this most difficult time. Love, Heather Dignan (nee: Copland)

We had great fun watching and listening to the competitive banter between him and my father Vincent both trying to get one up on the other. Thinking of you all at this sad time.

Dear Ida & Family
I was so sorry to hear of the recent passing of Wilf. So many great memories come to mind of the times spent together at Irish community lunches, dinners, plays, St. Patrick Day Parades, to name a few! Wilf was always great company and he loved socialising with his fellow Irishmen! He will be greatly missed by us all. May he rest in peace. Una

Such sad news to receive while Ed and I are out of town. I’ve know the O’Connor family, since 1975 when Oonagh and I attended St Lawrence school together. They were a warm loving family on 101 Vauxhall Drive.
Then 10 years later, after getting married, we moved into the Curran Hall neighbourhood and reconnected with Mr and Mrs O’Connor. Once again, we were members at same Parish, St Thomas More.
This beautiful couple, Mr and Mrs O’Connor (always to me, never transitioned to their first names) were warm and welcoming to me, and my growing family.
Rest In Peace, Mr. O’Connor. I’m sure you and my late father, Doug Dias, will reunite in heaven and once again, have a few drinks and play some tennis together.
Much love, from Ed and Danielle (Dias) Giggie

My condolences to you and your family Ida. Wilf was a lovely man with a terrific sense of humour both on and off the tennis court. You really were a great team in life.

Wilf was an active member at Curran Hall Park Tennis Club for many years. He won several club championships and he gave back by serving on the Club Executive. In recent years, Wilf and Ida were in regular attendance at our annual Euchre Night. Wilf will be missed.
