To the O'Brien family -

I am sorry for your loss. I have very fond memories of Mr. OB during my high school days at BG. I remember him appreciating our visit to the hospital to see Mike. His smile and enthusiasm were infectious and he was always great to the sports teams and boosters. What a great family to leave as a legacy! Take comfort in all the memories you share. My condolences to all.

My Sympathy to entire O'Brien family. I met Pete when he owned Brownell Abstract and I worked for the County Clerk's Office (1986 - 2005. He was always so kind to all of us who worked there, and I remember standing at the Counter while I recorded all of his documents one by one, and having great conversations with him. I will be thinking of you and giving my prayers at this sad time.

The photo is just how I remember him! Susan (Basta) Mahoney
