My Condolences to the Corboy Family. Dave McSweeney Retired Local 82 member.

There isn't a word to describe a friendship that spans 75 years. Tom Crowley and John Corboy met in the playgrounds of Jamaica Plain and continued meeting for coffee and strolls around South Shore Plaza, sharing stories from long ago. He was best man at our wedding and godfather to Maura. My most recent great memory of John and Bridget is sharing the honor table at our daughter Caitlin 's wedding last year. Brendan spent many Saturday 's trolling for computer games while Tom and John solved the world 's problems. Though we mourn John 's passing, we hold onto our faith and claim Christ 's promise that we will meet again in his kingdom. The Crowley 's.

I am so sorry Bridget to hear about John. I will miss seeing you two out on the dance floor at our monthly mass at the ICC. You are all in my prayers.

Mr. Corboy,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice-first for our Country when you served with the USN and later for the citizens of Boston when you served with the BPD. And to your Family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.
