To the family of "Michael", our family offers our condolenses and prayers in your time of need ! We pray that God eases your pain and brings you gentle calm in knowing that God has a special place reserved for all of us.

I would like to express my deepest sympathies to Nears family and friends. To say Near is a great guy is an understatement. He was one of the best and he will be missed by everyone that knew him.

Dear Houlihan Family,

I was very sorry to hear about Near's passing. Michael never passed me by without saying hello. He was one of the nicest guys from Bridgeport. My sister Megan and my Mother said how nice Bobby's speech was at Mass. May God Bless your family during this difficult time.

To the family of Mike:

All of us from Mike's apprenticeship class #40 of Sheet Metal workers Local 73 are morning your loss. He was our brother and was beloved by all of us at school. We all endured the hardships of apprenticeship together and Mike's good nature and outgoing personality made him a class favorite by students and teachers alike. We will miss our brother greatly.
