I keep thinking back to when I was a kid-ALL the visits to your house & mum would say " but you have 7 kids already!" And you or Ann would say "so what's 1 more?" I treasure those times with all of you & I remember Bob singing to me-I felt so special- & his sense of humor- especially ah his graces at dinner time! He got in trouble sometimes for those! But all us kids chuckled, under our breath if we could so we didn't get in trouble too!

To the McCarthy Family,
We were so saddened to hear of the loss of your husband and father. We will always remember Mr. McCarthy for his great sense of humor and easy-going manner. Your family has always been a second family for Joe and his memories of growing up with all of you have been repeated often to our girls. We will look fondly on our times spent with you and those to come in the future. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
Love, Donna, Joe, Caitlin & Keryn

Dear Aunt Ann and Family,
I know Uncle Bob will be missed by many people. He had the greatest outlook on life. He helped me feel so much better and understood things when my mother died. I wish I could help you the way he helped me. His sense of humor was one in a million. We will miss him.

Dear Ann and Family,
You were our neighbors and over the years, our friends. Bob always shared that terrific smile. He was a great father, grandfather, and husband. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Mr. McCarthy,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
