Dear John and the entire O'Neill family. My memories of your father have never left me. Sitting in the back of his Ford station wagon with the scouts are one of my oldest memories. My mom and dad were heart broken when they learned about your father. He will be in our prayers. John Fahy, OLR class of 1976..
