To The Entire O'Mara Family:
Phil and I send our sincere condolences on the loss of Timmy. He was one of a kind and loved to live his life his way. You are all blessed to have many fun and happy memories of him on vacation and at the Cottage. Thinking of you all.
To the O'Mara family, my condolences. Tim was a great person. He will be missed.
Camping, the graveyard, the rope swing, the rocks, skiing, swimming, the falls, fishing, frogs, a first kiss, skiing some more, seaweed, snapping turtles, exploring the lake at night while the grown ups played canasta. The memories of every childhood summer with Danny and Timmy, Donna and Jen, and the rest of our beloved O'Mara clan are forever in our hearts. We grieve with you.
I am truly sorry for your loss. Although I did not know your loved one personally, my heart goes out to you during this very difficult time. In times like this I have found comfort in God's promises recorded at Revelation 21:4 & John 5:28,29, where it is promised that sickness & death will be done away with but that our loved one is safe in God's memory and we will be able to be reunited with them again. These promises may seem unrealistic because of what we experience now, but I hope that knowing our loving Heavenly Father longs to do these things (Job 14:14,15) can bring you some comfort until these promises are fulfilled.
Dear Danny, Patty, Donna and entire O'Mara Family,
Our deepest heart felt condolences on the recent loss of Timothy. Eddie and I are truly very sorry to have missed the services. But please note that we were deeply saddened by this news as we returned home.
We will keep all of you in our daily prayers and please let us know if we can help in any way.
Our Love,
Eddie and Hilda
