I never knew Hugh, but I'm sure if he was like his son Hugh Jr he was an outstanding person. Even though I have not seen Hugh Jr in many years I would like to pass on my sympathy to Hugh Jr and your family. Also, may God's blessings be with you and your family to lift you up in this time of loss. Tim Donohue and family
