Mr. O’Connor, Brigid, Eileen, Kathleen, Ned, Peggy & Sean,
I was deeply moved and saddened to hear of the loss of your dear wife, mother, grandmother and friend. My memories of Kathleen and your entire family run strong and deep having played an integral part of my life as a young girl. I hope that a measure of comfort comes from the memories of the love you have for her and the immense love and pride she had for all of you. She was a charismatic, clever, wonderful woman whose presence will live on in all of you.
My deepest sympathy and love to all of you.
