Not sure what to say?

I taught with Les at the David A. Ellis School from 1965-1968. I was just out of B.C., and it was my first job. I have never forgotten him, and his kindness and helpfulness. Condolences to all his family and friends.

Dear Muriel,
I am so grieved to hear of Les' untimely death. To the Lord, though, all deaths are timely. Les was certainly ready for his meeting the Lord. This is a lesson for how we should lead our lives. There was no gentler, kindlier, more just man than Les. He will live on in my memory forever.

Dear Mary and the rest of the Gallgher family,

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. May your memories of your husband/father be a comfort to you in the days and months ahead.

To Jerome, Mrs. Gallagher, and family. I am so sorry you lost your father and husband. He was a great man and lived life to the fullest. I always enjoyed looking at his books in the down stairs den including the "Hobbit". Jerome, my prayers are with you and family.
Your good friend always,
Tom Kerrigan

To Mary Hathorne, Mrs. Gallagher and family, my family and I are so very sorry for your loss, I know from hearing many stories from Mary Theresa Gallagher Hathorne, that Mr. Gallagher was a truly wonderful and kind person, father and grandfather. Please know that our prayers and love are with you all at this time.

To my old friend Joe and all the Gallagher family. I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Gallagher was a big part of our years growing up. We could always count on him to participate in our pick-up hockey games on Martha Jones pond. He was a friend and an inspiration. I can still hear him encouraging you to "be a skater Joey, be a skater."

Muriel, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. The noon Mass at the Diocesan Center Friday, June 1, will be offered for Les.

To Mrs. Gallagher, children and grandchildren, Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. Mr. Gallagher was a kind, loving and gentle man who had much love for his family. God Bless him and give you all strength. With sympathy and love, Danny and Roberta Sardella & children

Oh Muriel, my heart breaks for you, your children and your grand children. Lester was such a kind, sweet and loving man. David, Analise and I will always remember him.
All our thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. God bless you all.
