Not sure what to say?

Dear Kyle and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Uncle George.
I am so proud that he was my Godfather. He always made me feel very special when in his company.
I remember, as a little girl, he'd give me a warm hug and sing, "When You wish Upon a Star." He taught me that anything was possible.
Always positive, always kind, always smiling.
My family and I will miss him.
We wish you God's peace and His comfort in the difficult times ahead.
Love,
The Larese-Wise-Burke...

Ultimate Irish mischief, fun-loving, happy-go-lucky, forever smiling, all bring to mind George. Rooming with him at Trinity was an honor, as he was"The Man " in all athletic endeavors. He sure knew how to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Condolences to his family. May he Rest In Peace.

I am so very sorry to hear of Uncle George's passing. He grew up with my dad (Patrick Dowd) and I've heard many a tale of their friendship and mischief... like hitchhike races to Boston for a Red Sox game. Uncle George was gregarious and larger than life, had a charismatic smile and could turn a phrase with his wit. He is remembered fondly by all the Dowds.

Please accept my condolences. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

We wish to extend our condolences to the Kelleher family. May George rest in peace.

Dear Kyle

I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing. My prayers and heartfelt sympathy are with you and your family during this difficult time.

As you know Kyle,at one time your father was that very special person in my life, and even though the time moved forward he always remained a very special person in my heart.

George and I shared many good times together and I will always cherish those fond memories.

He will always be remembered-- to forget him...

Dear Kelleher family and friends - The Westfield High School class of 1967 just learned of the passing of our "Mr Kelleher." He was our teacher, coach and friend. We will think of him during our upcoming 50th class reunion this fall.

I remember Mr. Kelleher's patience and humor during my lessons in drivers' ed. He always had a great smile.

I am sorry for your loss and wish you comfort in your memories.

The last few years for George were a long haul, but he never gave up on his spirit and toughness. My thoughts are with you Bardo. Peace to you.

How will our family go on without George?
He was our family historian/always making sure we knew the history behind our crazy family tree, going so far as to put it together in a book " Miller, Studley & Kelley" with names,birthdates,marriages
(3 for one of our ancestors and that's why our family tree is so large)deaths, etc.
We will be forever grateful for the love and time you took to put this together for us. I also will never forget the sneaky ways you found to send cards, so...

Kyle
Sorry for the loss of your Dad.

Early days of the Sons of Erin he came up with a slogan for membership drive.



Cement a place in heaven
Join the Sons of Erin

Although it did not have the authority of a Papal Bull

I think he got the pass.
He will be missed by many.
