So sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. We played many a game of basketball back in the day in Jackie Leonard's backyard on Wenham Street.

Thoughts and prayers reserved for the entire O'shea family and dearest friends of Jerry and God Bless!! We acquire many friendships and acquaintances in our lifetime but it seems like our childhood friends remain closest to our heart and never forgotten. We shared alot of memories from our old neighborhood at Woodbourne Road and Bourne Street and of course our beautiful parish St. Andrew's.
