To The O'Connor Family:



I am deeply saddened to hear the news of your father's passing. He was a kind and decent man and it was an honor to work under him when he was a State Representative. I considered him a mentor and will miss his humor and spirit of "anything is possible." He is free now and may God grant him eternal rest.

We miss you already Jack. You and Marikay were part of our FBI family for 41 years. Our only consolation at this time is that you're together again. Tell her hello from all of us and let her know she's always with us. Love, Francis and Kathy
