Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?

Dear O'Malley Clan,

We wish you comfort during this very sad time.

We are with you in pain, and much more importantly, in fond memories of Mr. O'Malley.

Tom added color to so many lives that you may never really know the total effects of his presence.

I can remember, or I should say, "will always remember" the extraordinarily fun times at the water (Geneva, Delavan, Twin Lakes, etc) where he loved to spend time.

I also must say, in the warmest regards, he and the entire entourage of O'Malley Family members and extended families, were the best people with which to spend liesure time at the lake ("lake" meaning any place with water, lodging, and most importantly; a well stocked bar)

Us O'Leary's spend time in the summer right on the WI/IL border. We regret the fact we were not able to have Tom up to visit our place at Prairie Harbor - we know he would have loved it. But maybe that's OK. His memory will continue on at our home harbor even in his passing.

Our Love and Prayers are with the entire O'Malley Family and we will always be in warm rememberance of Mr. O'Malley...God bless us all with the loss.

Dan, Trish and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. We did not know Tom but he's an O'Malley! Proud and from good stock!
If there is anything we can do for you....just dial "M" for Manning.
God Bless

Dear Nancy & Family,
Janine and myself would like to take this time to offer or sincere condolences at the passing of your Tom.There is not much that can be said to really confort you at this time. However knowing Tom for several years and having a couple of good talks with him at the Ham Tree and knowing how much fun he had in life should make you feel good. There is not much he didn't do. Remember to keep those Good and Happy Times you all shared alive and it will help you get thru these next few difficult weeks. Again our sincere condolences and our prayers are with you and all of your children.

Nancy - I'm so sorry to hear about Tom. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers!
