Not sure what to say?

John and I always stopped to say Hello to each other when we crossed paths and I consider him a true friend .... and I will always remember that unique smile and the laughter that followed after I had told him some stupid joke or was just kidding around with him. And
he was always a good listener ... lots of times ... and he always responded with heartfelt advice ...And I will miss him to be sure... May God Bless John And All Of His Loved Ones :-) Forever and Ever.. Amen !!!

Dear Mee-Mee,

I heard from the Hogan's of your loss . isn't it strange how some people put more life into 52 years than others do in 90 ? I think Johnny O' touched all he came in contact with , and we are all in fact enriched for it . I pray for you and your children in this trying time . he has not left , as you probably know already . Johnny O' was a good man , and more importantly a good human a truly rare breed .

luv ya John L

Dear Maria, We are filled with sadness for you and your family. Keep the good memories alive always and it will give you strength.

The O'Brien Family,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Our deepest condolences.

I occasionally worked with John at the BMC. I found him a thoughtful man who had a wide range of experience in life, as evidenced in my conversations with him. John was the type of man one would naturally ask an opinion of, since you might come to trust his judgement. A tough-minded man, I liked him, I trusted him and I will miss his not being around.
