Gerald J. "Jerry" Breen

Dear Breen Family,
Our condolences on the passing of Jerry. We have been welcomed and warmed to as family by all, none more than Jerry. We wish you all happiness in the memory of this wonderful man.

Kathy, Although the time I spent with Jerry and the family was short, it remains a warm and affectionate memory. Empathy and compassion was the essence of Jerry and I share the sadness that the family feel at his passing. He was a fine man who will be missed by all who knew him.

Dear Breen Family,
I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of Jerry. I think of your family often. You are all in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Tracy Bittner (Rice)

Dear Kathy & Family,
The Irish poet Joseph Plunkett said it so well "Because I know the spark of God has no eclipse, now death and I embark and sail into the dark with laughter on our lips." Jerry will be remembered always for his great courage.

Kathy:
So saddened to hear of Jerry's passing. In my four years on staff at John Carroll, Jerry was so good to me, as we worked to get the Private Sector Business Assoc. off the ground, and keep the Alumni Board thriving under his leadership. He taught me lessons about management and leadership of people I still use each day, and gave me a fine example of what a father and a husband should be. Julie and I will keep you and the boys in our prayers.
God Bless Jerry Breen and all the...

Kathy,
Jerry was a teacher, coach, and friend and my memory of him spans over 30 years. I am so sorry for your loss, I apologize for not noticing anything in the paper until today. I would have loved to attend the funeral mass for him. I will always remember him, a great person.

With deepest sympathy,

Alan Johnson
