To All the Breens- I just heard about your fathers passing and will be unable to attend either wake or funeral. Walter could prompt a laugh like no one, and I will forever remember the joyous times spent growing up with the Breen family. My father considered Walter one of the funniest men he ever knew, and both my parents considered Marie one of the most sweetest and decent women to ever walk the earth. Thanks to all of you for the great times shared, and may your father be ready to keep the old crew laughing for eternity. God Bless.
