Our condolences to the O'Reilly Family. Joe was one of a kind. He was truly one of the nicest people we have ever met. He was quick with a joke and always kind to our children. We will never forget him. He will always remain in our thoughts at 123 Perham Street. Rest in peace.

To the O'Reilly family,
I really never got to know uncle Joe. But from what his nephew Keith told me about him, he was a wonderful man and a serious Red Sox fan. I wish I could have gotten to know him better. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time.
