Best wishes to my long lost cousins!  My father has past away recently as well.  I am disheartened to learn of your father's passing.  Every O'Hara is family.  We had the same name.

I am truly sorry.

My condolences to Mrs.O`Hara,his children and grandchildren.Mr.O`Hara was my all time favorite teacher at Benner Jr. High school,(1967/69) .I had him for 2 classes all year in 7th grade and 8th.I have so many good memories from his teachings I have told them to my kids growing and to my grandkids.One of the lessons he taught us kids was of how one day we will not be able to see the mountains because of air pollution,how we would be buying bottle water,of land being worth more than gold and homes would be built so close together one would be able to jump from roof to roof..all came to be as Mr.O`Hara said it would. Another time he asked the class to take out the class pictures we had just gotten and asked who we thought had taken the best picture,he then said so and so is trying to look cool or so and so looks tuff and so on.I remember how ugly I looked so to.my surprise he says that I took the best picture because I'm being myself and also because his wife is named JoAnne,as is mine. Mr.O`Hara often spoke of his wife and kids and of fishing and camping to the class..For some reason he has been on my mind so I looked him up  just now and found out of his passing.He will always be in my fondest memories as my favorite teacher of ever! Again my deepest condolences and prayers to all of the O`Hara family who he loved so much you all were part of the  class stories.

Cassidy and Family,  Please, accept our sympathy.  Our prayers and thoughts are with you and yours in this time of sadness.  Love: Fischer family

Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

Szczesny Family

My love and condolences to the O'Hara family during this time of grieving and adjustment.  What I know about Mr. O'Hara, I learned through the colorful tales of him passed on by Casey.  He sounds like he was quite a character who lived a rich and enviable life full of adventure, achievement and family.

Sending my condolences to the O'Hara family in this time of loss. I met Mr O'Hara while I was playing sports at MHT with Cassidy, May he rest in peace    Michael Serna and Family

Grandpa-
Words wouldn't do any of my feelings justice. I still drive home from work and look for you on your chair on the porch, but realize you won't ever be there again to visit with. And every time I pass your "usual spots," I have to force myself to inhale deeply to control my fits of tears. You were truly my favorite grandpa- not just because you were the only one, but you were the biggest fan of my life. I don't think I'd have made it this far without you cheering me on from your little corner, and my teaching has only improved thanks to your recommendations and counseling.  You can rest now, and I'll make sure to take care of mom, so don't worry yourself any longer. Love you always.

Beautiful pictures to add to the ones in my memory!  I will miss you and the fun talks we had at Trinity.  Love forever.

WOW, how life can kick you down!  But dad always said "get up,dust yourself off and keep going". So here it is Monday and I'm doing just that. Thanks dad for all your wit and wisdom.

love the 5th child

My sincere condolences. May you draw close to God in prayer and find comfort in reading his Word. Joshua 1:8
