Dear Kathryn:
We never met because Tim and I went our separate ways many years ago. We were classmates at Fordham and roommates at Le Moyne. I am saddened at his death and offer you my deepest condolences. He will be in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Don Brisson

It would take an exceptional writer to describe the love I feel for Uncle Timmy.

May the love we all feel for Timmy fill Kathy's heart.

I wish I could be there.

Tim and his brother, Seamus, are up there deep in conversation, in a tongue that few, if any, could comprehend. I loved them both and will miss them both. Kathy, you are the best!
