My sympathies to the family of Captain O'Hara who was a dynamic and compelling leader as well as a role model and mentor to junior offices. God bless this wonderful man.

Our love goes out to the entire O'Hara family. We share such wonderful memories of our 4th of July's together and the bond that childhood friendships brought to us all. As heartbroken as we all are, I know a bunch of Irish Folks up in heaven that have welcomed their friend home.

With Love,
Jill McLaughlin Godfrey and the Godfrey Family

An amazing man, who always treated me as though I was one of his own. He meant a great deal to me and the rest of his family, and will be deeply missed.
