I just wanted to send my prayers to the O'Brien family and John's girlfriend Jennifer. I met John about 4 years ago, freshman year. He was a great person and will be missed very much. The funeral service was beautiful and I know if John knew how many people were there for him he would have been happy to know that so many people cared and loved him. My thoughts are with the O'Brien family always, and of course his girlfriend Jennifer. Rest In Peace John +
