Your Dad was an amazing family man and
a true role model for all. He never lost a friend and

Dear Mrs. O'Loughlin, Our thoughts and prayers are with you today. We loved Mr. O so much. Each of my children were so excited to come and see his Halloween decorations and they still remember him scarring me so much I left the kids and ran! He allowed the kids to shovel in the winter and they saved that money for their first cars. He was so respected in the neighborhood. We had many special hours on his front porch talking about life. We all loved the Christmas songs he would play during the holidays. He will be missed by so many people. Prayers to your family.

Mrs. O'Loughlin and family -- My sincerest sympathy to all of you on Mr. O'Loughlin's passing. He was another of the South Side's "great guys". He always did so much for our parish and for all of us.
My fondest memory, however, is of his Christmas star, hanging on your front porch, playing holiday tunes. I looked forward to walking past your house and enjoying it year after year.
May your memories give you comfort during these difficult times.

I am so very sorry for your loss and remember the two of you as such great friends to each other and so many others! I used to love to hear all the stories and look at Bob's paintings! He had such an eye for beauty, of course, as he chose you as his beloved!
My prayers will continue for you all.

Barb and family I am so sorry for your loss. I was a caregiver for Bob before he went to the veterans home. I enjoyed his company and our friendly jibes about the marine corp and navy. He was truly one of the sweetest people I've had the pleasure to assist and know! God bless.
