Lori and O'Neill Family,
My sincere condolences.
Such a loss is so difficult, especially when you share such a close bond, as you and your family always have. It has been many years since seeing your father, but I have fond memories of how he looked after his daughter, and the rest of the girls at Queen's. I know you have the strenght to get your family throught this, a quality you have had throughout your life.
Love to you and yours,
Alison

Dear Dee, Karen, Donna, Lori and Jennifer: please accept my sincere condolences.Words fail to do justice and cannot describe the feeling of void and loss that is felt by all of us. Jim was very special in more ways than one. His warmth, his love, his care, his commitment, his guidance was all very special. He was always there to hold my hand whenever I needed him. I was privileged to be accepted and welcomed by all of you as Jim's friend. May we all find comfort in knowing that he is at peace and in a wonderful place and ofcourse still with us in his thoughts and love - smiling at us with his special twinkling eyes.
With regards,
