Dear Peggy, Jimmy, Tommy and Family,

We are all so deeply sorrowful of the passing of Uncle Olley.

To my cousins Peg, Jim, Tommy and all your family.

I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Jim's death. He was a wonderful man. When he visited Ireland on so many occasions he brought so much love, help and happiness to the people he met there.
