William D. "Oak" O'Connell

I worked for Bill in 1984 &1985. He was the only boss that I truly liked and respected. So much so that we re-made contact and he and Jeanie came to my 50th birthday in Europe. What an amazing human being, what a privilege to know him, what a sadness in his early death. May he rest in peace.

My condolences to the O'Connell Family. Bill may you rest in Peace

God Bless you Billy. Rest in peace. Fair skies & following winds! Condolences to your family & friends.

Our deepest condolences. I worked with Bill on a matter that lasted over two years. His unflagging good humor and common sense were as important as his exceptional intellect. He had a formidable skill set but was never full of himself. He will be sorely missed.

Bill O'Connell was "The class of 1966 from CHS". Saw him at every reunion. We both went to St Mary's Grade School so there was an added connection for me. So much sympathy to his family-My prayers are with you all and will be offered for him.

My condolences to all of the fun loving O'Connel family. Love, Nancy Gruber

I shared a few laughs with Bill at the 50th reunion. He hadn't changed in all those years. I will always have fond memories of him. He was a really "Good Guy".
