Mark O'Connor

Dear O'Connor Family,

My heart is breaking for you all and you are in my thoughts and prayers. I went to UD with Mark and have many fond memories of him, he was always so sweet and quick to smile... a welcome face on a bad day or any day for that matter! Mr. O'Connor I met you several times our my years at UD, we would all pile in Marks car and head to your house, many times arriving hungry and leaving full! Mark was dear friend during those years, and although we lost touch...

Dear O'Connor Family,
Please accept my deepest sympathies and prayers for God's blessings for your family.
I attended the Univ of Dayton with Mark. We had an incredible time at UD and Mark was a great friend.
Three years ago I was assigned to Springfield as my territory as a pharmaceutical sales rep. I was always thinking about Mark and wondered if he still lived in Springfield. Low and behold the next day I walked out of Harding Rd. pharmacy and there he was. We sat...

Dear Bill, Terry, and family:
I am so sorry to hear about Mark. Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers. I will never forget Mark's sweet smile.

To the O'Connor Family:

I am an old friend of Mark's from University of Dayton. Mark was one of my closest friends there at school. We even studied abroad in Europe together in the Spring/Summer of 1982 with UD.

I cannot tell you how many times over the years that I have run into someone from Springfield. All I had to do is ask if they knew the O'Connor Family-most of the time, if they didn't know one of you personally, they had surely heard the family...

Dear Maura,
I am sorry to hear about the loss of your Dad. You and your family are in my family's thoughts and prayers. I hope you feel better soon and can not wait until you come back to school. Love, Lauren Perkins and family

to Mark's family,
Please accept my sympathy for your loss. His going is an extra heavy burden for your family. I remember Mark from when I taught at St. Teresa's.

I haven't been in touch with Mark for several years, but have thought of him & his family often over the years. I didn't have the opportunity to meet his wife or children. Mark was always a special person and a great friend. He was a delight to go to school with all my childhood years at St. Theresa and Catholic Central. I will always have fond memories of how he made me laugh and what a great guy he was! I know in my heart he had proven to be an excellent man of itegrity to his family and...

Mark had a very positive impact on me and my family. His strength of faith and dedication to our mutual love of working in the medical field was such a God given gift. He eased the pain in the lives of others and may you now know that we are here to support you during this difficult time. I am sorry I could not get to the funeral. I am glad that Michelle and Scott could be there to represent our family. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Terry and the O'Connor family,
Please know you are in my thoughts and prayers at this very sad time. May God bless you and your family and keep you close in his care. I am deeply sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in knowing your loved ones are together and are embracing you to help you get through this time.
Take care,
