Brothers, Family and Friends,
|
Here is a quick snippet on how I remember our late brother Thomas E. Conley.
|
Br. Tom was a great guy, lately he had his limitations due to his long fought battle with an illness, but he helped out wherever he could. At our events, he would help with ticket sales for the 50/50, for Gods Special Children we would pull the bench over a bit at DD Pluckemin - he sat on it on the early shift (as it was busier!) in his USMC jacket. Collected more than anyone else during the day!
|
Then he came by wheelchair, no slowdown. A lot of contractors come by early and he would smile & greet all. Will be at his service tomorrow early.
|
Very pleasant memories sitting down with him over a coffee.
