    Dear Jim, Mark and Michael. I enjoyed my September 2011 week long visit with your Mom and Dad. I got to know your Dad a little more as we walked along the trail behind the house, stopping to rest occasionally. He talked of his time in the Army spent in Germany. He was a wonderful man, full of fun. I know he and your Mom are enjoying lasting peace. Love and hugs Mary Holmes 43 Old State Rd. Charlestown, NH 03603

    I was sorry to hear of the passing of Seamus. He was always so kind to the O'Toole family of Sheraden. May he rest in peace and the perpetual light shine upon him!
