Not sure what to say?

Jason,
Thank you for always being so caring about your students. I had good laughs with you when we taught together. Praying for all your family & friends....
S. Epich

Oz, I was shaken to hear of your early passing. Your infectious laugh will forever resonate within me. You were a shining light, may you continue to shine wherever you are. Love, light and condolences to your family.

Oz, don't know what else to say, but you will be missed. You were surrounded by friends yesterday as I am sure you were today at the service. You had a way of bringing people together. No matter how many days, months or years since I last saw you, it always felt like we picked up where we left off. Still hard to believe I won't have the opportunity to hear that laugh or hear one of your incredible stories. Heaven got another good one.

I was so shaken to hear about the loss of Jay. My heart and prayers go out to you guys. May God wrap his arms around you all during this time of need.

May God bless you and keep you safely in His arms.

Oz, you were a kind and generous man. We had some great times and many great talks together. It is heartbreaking to say goodbye like this, but at least you are now at peace. Rest easy my friend.

Dear Gerrie and Family, prayers and thoughts are with you at this very hard time. Sorry I couldn't be there.

Jason, we grew up together. We had so many great times..holidays, vacations. I will miss you. Rest in peace little brother.

Gerrie and Niki, we also grew up together. May we now find strength in the Lord.

To Jason's family,

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Jason. I was fortunate enough to have shared many wonderful times with him at Loyola. His laughter, jokes and larger than life presence is something I will never forget. I will continue to keep Jason,as well as his family and friends in my thoughts and prayers.
God Bless,

Annie Doyle
