Johnnie, Tommie Joe, Jim and Maureen - My deepest condolences on the passing of your Dad. I know that he and your Mom meant alot to my parents. I remember him growing up as being such a nice man. In recent years, my Mom would update me as to your Dad's trips to Ireland and his being able to keep up with all the "doings". He was such a fighter. I know that you all took good care of him. I hope that brings you comfort at this time. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Trish Moroz (Mona and Pat Donohue's daughter).

To the Lally family, I'm sorry to hear about your dad. He was a wonderful friend and great fun to be around when watching the football matches. It won't be the same without him. He cared about so many people and we will miss him.
