Dear Mike and Margie,

We just heard from Patty (on Saturday) that both your parents passed away. Words cannot express how sorry we are for your loss. They must have been very close in life, as well as in death - and now their legacy of love lives on in you and your children, what a beautiful family. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. May God bless you during this difficult time.

Very sorry to hear about your parents passing. I'll always remember them as a huge part of RF, St.Lukes, and Little League. They went the distance. Good innings. Well done!

Dear O'Neill family, I was deeply saddened when I heard of your double loss today. My heart goes out to all of you. Tho many years ago, I still see your parents smiling when we were all over for a party and how much joy they got from children being around your home. They were wonderful parents. I am hoping you will find peace knowing they are with God now and watching over you and your families. My condolences.

To the O'Neill children: I habitually think of your parents and the amount of good they have done- the many years of the selfless sharing of their talents, time, joy and most importantly, hope.

They each, or in unison, touched a lot of people, always 'paying it forward' with regards to helping others.

My sincere condolences

What wonderful people were your parents. My best wishes and prayers to you all.

Your parents/grandparents were kind and thoughtful people and I enjoyed working with both of them. I have a feeling Margaret stayed until she knew John was in good hands. Sending prayers to all of you. Janet Weis

Dear O'Neill Family,

I was saddened to read of the death of your parents. They were a sweet couple and raised such a lovely Irish family!

You were all small children (just 6 of you then,) in the 60s when my family lived in your Grandpa Barrett's house on Lathrop, on the other side of the Hughes' home.

My mother really enjoyed it when one of you would stop by for a visit and a little treat. It made her day.

So many years have passed, but just wanted you to know...

Mary,
Our prayers are with you during this difficult time. I always admired your mother as a lovely person with a beautiful smile and your father as such a gentleman.
Peace be with you,
