Ann and the O'Keefe family,



We were saddened to learn of your loss, but hope that you will be consoled by your faith and fond memories.

You have our deepest sympathies.

My heart and my prayers are with the O'Keefe family. As Anne's college roommate, my encounters with Mr. O'Keefe always left me smiling. He was a man of great thought and character. I always found him to be truly charming and warm. These characteristics clearly shine through his children.

Anne, your dad was one of the few people I've encountered who really and truly knew how to live life to the fullest. What an indomitable spirit! I'm sure it meant a great deal to him to have his loved ones near him in his last hours and am so glad he got to know your little guys. He will be greatly missed by many. Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts.

All my love,

Eithne

Siobhan, I just wanted to let you know you and your family are in my thoughts. I am so sorry for your loss.

Nothing can ever heal the pain of losing a loved one, but it is the memories that keep you going. Anne, we hope that your memories and the love of friendship and family are a source of comfort to you and your family.

I am so lucky to have Bern as my friend and to have met so many of her siblings. It is obvious where they get their sense of humor and kindness from. My family's thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our deepest sympathies are with you during this difficult time. We know that your family has many wonderful memories of your loving father.

Our heartfelt sympathies to Diane and the entire O'Keefe family. We were privileged to know John only for a very brief time. However, we will always be grateful to have become an extended member of his and your family through the marriage of our children, Nick and Linda.



We truly enjoyed John's warmth. May your memories of him always be wonderful.

Our condolances to the entire O'Keefe family. John was a wonderful person and will be missed. Our prayers are with him and the family.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you lay to rest a husband, father & grandfather. I thank God for the life that Mr. O'Keefe lived & the legacy he leaves behind through his children and grandchildren. Much love to you all during this time.

Although I didn't know John, I am assured of his character through the actions and character of his son, Dan. I'm sure many wonderful memories will warm you all during this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

"Well done, good and faithful servant!" A great priest and a good father. He will live on not only through his great family but in our memories! You and your family are in our prayers, Diane, as we are sure we are in John's.
