Sincere condolences to all the McCormick family. Thinking of you all.
Yours Sincerely, David Wills.
Sincere condolences to the McCormick family on Donal‘s passing. May he Rest in Peace.
My sincere condolences to my Auntie Heather for the loss of her brother, and to my cousins Alan, Helen, Alastair, Stuart and Gary for the loss of their father. I will always remember Uncle Donal as a very kind and wonderful man. Someone who always made us welcome, and was always happy to see us. I’m sorry if I can’t be there in person, but I am in spirit. And I share your grief for the loss of a good man. May he rest in peace.
I was very saddened to hear about the passing of Uncle Donal and would like to pass on my condolences to the whole McCormick family. I have many happy memories of him, from my childhood, to a phone call this January. Thinking of you all and glad that Shirley & Dorothy can be with you in my absence.
Sincere sympathies to the McCormick families on the passing of Donal, he was a gentleman. May he rest in peace.
