Cannot believe it-Such memories-all those laughs.....made time spent in San Fran and Boston unforgettable .I was so fond of him.So so funy, fantastic company and a really nice thoughtful kind man. Regards to all his brothers and sisters but especially Marie, Richard, Paddy and Brendan and all the extended family of cousins-sympathy also to Patrice and Stephanie.
