Music was a central part of “Johnny O’Leary’s” life. He was a very good musician (on multiple instruments!) and expressed his creative side through playing/creating/performing music. Also, music was an important source of peace, comfort and happiness throughout his life.

He loved his radio show listening nights on WRIP RIP 97.9 (catskill area NY)! Shared it with me and I was able to listen online a few times with him, from TX, as we texted...

As those radio shows comforted him, The knowledge that he had a loving circle of friends (the depth/breadth of which, I am still, just recently becoming aware of) are comforting me now, and always have in the past, brought me a great sense of peace.
