To Fionnula Flanagan, whom my late husband Ralph and I met years ago [whilst we all visited with the Penn family in Malibu,] my sincere condolences to her & her extended family whose hearts must be broken at their loss. We followed with great admiration Dr. O'Connor's career while employed at the Betty Ford Clinic in the Coachella Valley, where we have lived and want to express the hope that Fionnula's large, wonderful-sounding family gather round and console her at this sad time. He was a charmer and a great raconteur- an unforgettable person. Sincerely, Heather Gold
