Mrs. McCarthy,
I am very sorry to hear about Mr. McCarthy. I will always remember his easy smile and listening to he and Grandpa Jake exchange their old Buffalo stories! It was always nice to see you both on our visits home. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dear Joyce, Sheila, Tony, and family -

My heartfelt condolences. Uncle Tim was always someone who stood for truth, integrity, and a strong sense of doing good (and with maybe just a bit of Irish blarney in there). When Sheila asked us all to send cards for his 80th birthday - I picked out a 'super-hero' card. He always did the kind of things that made this a better world. I remember when his brother Mike (Uncle Mike) passed away over 20 years ago -how he went down into Buffalo and sought out people who knew him - and collected stories of all the good things that he had done. I still remember those good stories of Uncle Mike until this day, that he read off at the eulogy. I remember being very impressed with him going the 'extra mile' for his brother. Uncle Tim did a lot of things for a lot of people, often without fanfare. This reflected his Franciscan spirit - which were a part of him from his Bishop Timon days. - Uncle Tim is an example to everyone - of a life well lived. It is up to each and every one of us - - to 'pay that forward' whenever we can!
