Dear O'Leary Family,
I'm so sad to hear the news and sorry for your loss. Joe and I were teammates at Good Technology and he impressed me not only as a smart and competent technician, but also as a kind and generous man. I'll never forget what a great host he was to me and my daughter at the Cell as we cheered on his beloved White Sox. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

To Joe's Family,
I was shocked and saddened to hear about Joe. I worked with him at Good Technology and he was a loving husband and father. He would tell me stories of the boys, trips on the boat and your Michigan adventure (with way too much ice cream:)). Always very proud of each of you.
My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Please accept my condolences. I was deeply sadden hearing of Joe's passing.
I was fortunate enough to have worked with Joe at RIM a few years ago.
My favorite memory of Joe.
We were on a business trip and out for dinner after a day of meetings. When the meal had finished Joe asked for a takeout container (which I thought was odd) and packed up some of the leftovers. Joe slipped out for a bit and returned shortly. Turns out Joe had taken the food to a homeless person we had walked by on the way to restaurant. What an awesome gesture of humanity.
I know the grief is very intense now but try to find a means to celebrate Joe's life I think that is what Joe would have preferred.

Dear Joe's family - I came to this site to look for the obit of a coworkers father and saw Joe's and am shocked and saddened. I was a customer of Joe's when he worked at RIM. Because we shared some common past experiences, I thought of him as a friend. Joe was a great man, extremely helpful and knowledgeable and will be sorely missed. I'm so very sorry for your loss.
Loving Uncle to Amy and Dave. Beloved brother in-law to Suzi and Jerry. You live forever in us. God Bless You Joe.

Dearest O'Leary family,
Joe was a dear childhood friend. We attended St. Cornelius together and hung out together with a group of neighborhood friends. Riding bikes, playing softball, hanging out at the beach. Long summer days and nights growing up in Jefferson park. I had the pleasure of meeting you, Nancy, and a couple of the kids in a McDonald's parking lot in Schaumburg years ago.
My prayers are with you all during this very difficult time. Gone too soon! Joe will remain forever young in my thoughts.
Most sincere condolences,
Marybeth (McLaughlin) Walsh

Dear Nancy and family, Joe and I worked together at RIM, I took over for Joe when he went from the ATT team to the Global team. Joe was a huge help to me in my new role and a great friend over the years. Every customer I visted loved Joe and told me stories of how much they enjoyed working with Joe and how they would miss him. I had big shoes to fill and Joe was always a big help in getting me up to speed.
I'm very sorry for your loss, I will pray for you all and for Joe. I'm sure he is with the Lord in heaven.

Nancy and the boys I just wanted to pass on my deep condolences. We never met personally, but I know Joe from working with him over the years at Aon and afterwards. He was a good co-worker and friend to me over the years and I always enjoyed getting together with him.
