Not sure what to say?

I was really sorry hearing of your dad's death. Like my brother, as I remember my childhood alot of the good times were with your family and the rest of the shamrocks. Our parents showed us what true fiends were and they truly were good friends. Hopefully some of that genuine friendship has rubbed off on us.

To the Leary Family:
I was very sad to learn of your father's death. I have so many fond memories of your parents and Lawndale St. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Cathy and family

Every one of my most treasured moments growing up involved Jimmy and Katie and your family. I look back at all the great times we had together at Mike and Rose McKenna's cottage for the Shamrock's picnics and spending every Christmas with your family will always have a very special place in my heart. I am deeply saddened to hear of Jimmie's passing and my thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family.

Dear Sister Cathy and all your family:

I have wonderful memories of your Dad when he was a fellow resident at Providence Place and I was the Chaplain. I remember very well how much "Seamus" (as I used to call him!) looked forward to welcoming family and friends to his "right off the cloister" apartment. May he enjoy the reward of his labors and my all of you keep your cherished memories of a wonderful man and a splendid father. I shall offer Mass for him here at home on Monday,...

We were very sad to learn that Jim had passed away. My earliest memories include playing on Lawndale Street and spending time with the Leary family. He was one of my dad's closest friends growing up in the North End together. We extend our deepest sympathy to the entire family.

With Love and Sympathy,

Dear Catherine and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad. He was lucky to have had you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
with deepest sympathy,
Laurie Autio and family
