Hello!! You are with us every day , we laugh and remember your kind Irish humor, all the Love you gave us. The pure magic of your caring comforting lovely gentle face. I Saw a few words the other day, they reminded me of when you were so upset after realizing a handshake with friends didn't matter. ''You ", he said ,"are a terribly real thing in a terribly false world,and that, I believe , is why you are in so much pain"You did everything right, generous,honest,loyal,shared,kind,kind, kind. In the end , you would gaze down thinking you could of done better. You were Perfecto in Every~Way.. Love You AlwaysXo

I worked at Moore & Schley, 120 Broadway from 1965 till 1970 and then with Moore & Schley, Cameron & Co. You were a great Wall Street CEO. It was a great place to work, too bad it could not continue as it was.

John McCooey, may you rest in peace, Amen
