Dear "Uncle Frankie " and Family --- Joey and Danny Dowd called about O'Mal early Friday afternoon ---too late to come to the wake or funeral . We are all devastated we did not know --Please forgive us not being there to offer our condolences . We had a great conference call --the three of us ---which brought back many wonderful memories of the Smiths and the Dowds . O'Mal was a beautiful woman --inside and out . I think it was shortly after my Dad's death almost ten years ago that Roni and I last saw Uncle Frank and O'Mal . We met for lunch after they returned from Europe . We had "a million laughs "!! Wish it hadn't been so long ! We will never forget her sweet and loving nature --her great smile !!! What a great friend she was to our mother . She and your entire family were a large and happy part of our growing up . And we believe that she ,Patsy Flynn and Cathy Flanagan are having a ball now in heaven. Our love and sympathy to all . Tara , Roni , Joey , Danny , Madonna and Sean Dowd .

Dear Frank and family,

Please accept our condolences for the loss of your wife and mother.

I just saw the notice in the Trib this morning, too late to attend the funeral. Our prayers are with all of you.
