Dear Family of James D. Keleher,

You do not know me, but I wanted to extend my sympathy to all of you. Over forty-five years ago, during a typical Western New York storm, my mother needed to get to Black Rock to assist her elderly mother. Due to the inclement weather she was unable to journey there. Detective Keleher went above and beyond the call of duty by going out of his juristiction, with possible penalty, to transport my mother to her destination. My family has always been...

Chris & Chris: Andy and I just returned from out of town and heard of the death of your dad. We are so sorry we could not be here for you and your family last week. Your dad was such a great man, always fun, especially out at the trailer in Franklinville. He made Kenmore a great place for me and our kids to grow up in. Thanks for sharing him! Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your mom and brothers and sisters.

Kathy,
I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that I am lifting you and your family up in prayer. I hope you and yours can find some comfort in this very difficult time from friends who care very much.
Love, Geri

Dear Colleen:

I was saddened to hear of your Dad's passing. I remember the many times that all of us "girlfriends" stopped by your home for a visit. We all have such happy memories of a home filled with love, laughter and so many activities.
A welcoming place that will always have a place in my heart. You have a lovely family and I can only express my sincere sympathy for your loss. Remembering you and Bruce, your dear mom and Kathy and family...

Love,

Chris...

Dear Keleher Family:
I'd like to extend my deepest sympathy to all of you. I knew Jim for most of my life, from the time I was one of Kathy's classmates at St. Paul's, thru the time Jim kept me on my toes as a teenager roaming the Village streets, thru the time we were co-workers and friends at KPD, and certainly thru his retirement years. I regret I was out of town and unable to pay my respect in person, but please know I mourn his loss and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

To the Keleher family,
May peace be with you during your time of grief. My family spent alot of time with you & all of the memories I have are wonderful. Remember the joy Mister Keleher has given all that new him.

Sue I have so many memories of Jim....the days he spent on stake out in my bedroom watching the drug house in the neighborhood, the talks at the hospital and the day he had the MI. I'm so very glad I had the chance to know him and I'm very sorry for your loss.

Dear Keleher family-
Just a short note to express my sympathy to you for your loss. I spent many years with Jim while with TTPD and know that we have lost a wonderful person. Please accept my condolences to your family.

My sincerest condolences to the Keleher Family. I grew up in the small community of Kenmore and came to meet and know Jim Keleher as fine and decent individual and police officer. He will be sadly missed.
