Thomas. Dennis Michael O’Connell, better known as “Denny”, of Edina, passed away suddenly on Friday, July 4. He was the son of Loretta O’Connell and the late Richard O’Connell. Denny was mighty proud to be in a long line of O’Connells’ from County Cork, Ireland. Then to grow up on the same land, on the Montgomery side of St.Thomas, where his folks Richard and Loretta, his grandparents Robert and Margaret, and great-grandparents William H., better known in St. Thomas as “Little Bill” and Julia, lived generations before. Denny’s maternal grandparents are Arnold and Sylia Kline, friends of this writer’s grandparents.Denny received his Sacraments of Baptism, First Communion, and Confirmation here at St. Thomas. Their family pew was next to the Jack Burns family pew on the Blessed Mother’s side, six pews from the front.Denny was a draftsman by trade. The O’Connell’s were all gathered at his sister, Lorie’s, for Father’s Day. Our sympathies to his mother, Denny’s son Brian, daughter Sara, and his precious grandchildren Brian’s Justin and Jeffery, and Sara’s Sadrea, Sade, Frank, and Sarod, who brought Denny so much joy. Sympathies also to sisters and brother-in-laws, Becky and Bob Block, Vicki O’Connell and Dave Schlingmann, and Lori and Rick Gregor. Visitation was Tuesday,
July 8 at the Schoenbauer Funeral Home in Montgomery from 4-8, with a Celebration of Life service from 6-7. Pat McGraw, owner and operator of McGraw Monument Works, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday, June 29 at his Henderson home. He was well known in the community. Being a cemetery enthusiast, this writer thoroughly enjoyed visiting with Pat, a friendly man, who always took the time to visit. Knowledgeable, full of interesting stories, with his genuinely warm smile and easygoing manner. Sympathies to his wife and family. Going to miss this guy. There has been a population explosion of baby girls on the Burns/Wolff branch of our St. Thomas tree. Madelyne Wolff is great-grandma again. Gerry and Mary Wolff’s son Dan and Melanie are proud to announce Emma Sofia Wolff was born on May 27, 2014. Ray Wolff’s daughter Lisa and Jonathan are proud parents of a daughter born June 3, 2014, Caroline Evelyn Wittig. Ray’s other daughter April and Jeff, had a baby girl June 27, 2014, Elizabeth Shea Yurecko, after Lizzie Shea Halloran, her great-great-great grandmother. Slowly, but surely getting back to normal after the flood.Thanks. Looking forward to the St. Thomas Ladies luncheon at the Fishtale on Tuesday. Next week’s news…Have a good one.
