You were inspiration to us. You will be deeply missed. Your messages were heart felt as if you were speaking right to me. Thank you

Father O'Reilly devoted his life to St. David's Catholic Church and the Davie community. His presence, compassion and infectious sense of humor will be missed. Hope Outreach is a lasting testimony to his concern for those less fortunate and his belief that the church's primary mission is to reflect the caring and concern exemplied by Jesus.

I will miss you.

My husband and I started going to St. David's about 18 years ago. Father O'Reilly baptized, confirmed, and gave me my First Communion as a Catholic. We will never forget his wonderful Homilies and his great sense of humor. Rest in Peace. We will miss you forever.
