The Reillys are a family many members of whom I am enriched in knowing through the 4th generation. You are all held in love and kindness as you grieve his passing and cherish your memories of a remarkable man.

I was a friend of the Reilly children many years ago. I have never forgotten their father´s kindness in helping me begin a path toward higher education that might have been beyond my means. Rest In Peace.

I never met Professor Reilly personally. But for professional reasons I read his work thoroughly. His books on Alfonso VI, Urraca and Alfonso VII remain the best and have been fundamental for my research. My condolences to this great scholar.
