Michael O'Hara

We met some years ago. Had the opportunity to play against him at the AAU Nationals some years ago. Since then we had seen each other many times at National Volleyball events and meetings. If we saw each other he would come clear across a crowded room and greet my wife and I. ONE HELL OF A CLASSY GUY! Rest in Olde Buddy. Chuck and Joan Stemm.

The greatest dad a son could ever imagine. In every way for all stages of life.

Arlen, Mike was a great mentor, friend and PT doubles partner during my life at the JC. Though I have been gone for over 21 years, I was glad I was able to run into the two of you the year before at the beach to catch up. My thoughts and prayers are with both of you.

Arlen and Ryan.......such a kind, lovely man I feel privilleged to have known. Love and blessings to you and your family. Dottie Henkle

It was with great sadness to read of the passing of Mike O'Hara. He was a teammate for many years on the National Champions Hollywood YMCA Stars, a beach doubles partner in a few Open Tournaments and a teammate on USA Volleyball. He will go down in volleyball history as one of the greatest both on the beach and indoors. My thoughts and prayers are with Arlan and Ryan.

A great person. An incredible competitor. Paddle tennis partner for years and he always was a winner. Will never forget the Barcelona Trip. Thoughts and prayers to Arlen and Ryan and family.

My sincere condolences ! Mike was a friend and also USA Volleyball teammate and will be remembered as one of the true greats of the game.God Bless the family. KD

I never had the opportunity to play against Mike but I was on several USA Volleyball Committees with him. He was such a great guy, I was on several USA Volleyball committees with him. When we would see each other anywhere, he would go out of his way to come over, smile, reach out a hand for shake and hug. Being from the midwest and never close to his level of a player, that made me feel like a MILLION BUCKS! Rest in peace and May God Bless!
