For the Devlin Family: You might remember me. My parents (Tom and Mary Jane Owen from Cumbola) were very good friends with your parents. I still remember visiting your home every Christmas. Nice memories. I am shocked and deeply saddened at the news of Joe's death. We knew each other very well, and played little league together. Time is the great healer and even though we are all shocked right now, time will ease the pain.
My Deepest Sympathy,
Tom Owen, Jr.
