Dear Patty,Jim and family.,,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad was one of kind with his own mold. You can be very proud of him and all the good he did for others. The Benedictine sisters will never forget his many kindnesses. I am sorry that I will not be able to make the wake or Funeral mass. I am disappointed,but I am a bit under the weather and feel it not wise to try.
I just know your Dad is in a better place and at peace now.
Love and prayers,Sr. Gabrielle Keenen. O. S. B.

I have many fond memories of Digger from years ago uptown. Running into him out and about always made my day happier because he always wore a smile and had something funny to say. Rest In Peace. Sincere and heartfelt condolences to the Gilpatric family.

Dear Christine,
My sincere sympathy, for the loss of your Father. It was such a pleasure to read about his life and career, truly a great all round guy. Someone to be very proud of and family he could be very proud of.
So hope to connect with you while you are back in the area. I so remember our days at Benedictine volunteering. I just loved that and spent my entire career between Nursing Homes and Hospitals. Never could get enough of working in the field of healthcare. However started out to follow in the footsteps of your Father in Funeral Service, but never found my way back to it.
You will be in my thoughts and prayers as you go through this difficult time.
Sincerely, Claire A Hannis

Dear Jim
It has been an honor to have met you and have spent lunch time with you and your lovely wife Roslie..I enjoyed you sense of humor and your contagious smile and laughter. It was amazing how your face lit up when you were singing and or having lunch with MiMi and Patti at dinner but always for Roslie. You will be missed and loved always at table 19.
I send my condolences and prayers to Rosali, Patti & MiMi and to the rest of the family.

I remember all the good times our families had at the Cape. Hopefully Digger and my father are sitting on a deck somewhere enjoying an ice cold . Two of the best men I grew up with.
