Edward O'Connor Sr. Was [And Still Is] A Wonderful & Unique Human Being. Warm, Very Funny, Charming, Witty, Strong, Independent and Proud. I Go Back With Him and His Dear, Sweet, Thoughtful Wife Rosemarie about 20 Years. I Was Introduced To Him By My Very Good Friend Craig O'Connor [His Son]. I Always Felt Welcome & Wanted At Any Family Gathering With Edward and Rosemarie. I Called Him ''Pop'' And I Always Gravitated To Him As I Felt A Strong Bond & Camaraderie With Him. He Was Always A Pleasant Gentleman and Exuded Respectibilty, Which I Admire Very Much. He Is With Jesus Christ [Our Savior] In Heaven Now, Smiling Down and Watching Over Us. We'll See Him Again When It's Our Turn To Ascend To The Afterlife. Until Then We Will Honor His Memory, Keep In Touch Through Prayer & Be Thankful We Had Him In Our Lives. God Bless You ''Pop'' Love and Respect Always, Your ''Adopted'' Son, Tommy Cianci. <3 xo
