Brothers, Below is a postscript from A.O.H. county president Dan Devinney:

It is with great sadness that I must inform you of the passing of John Patrick O'Malley. Brother O'Malley was the longtime President of AOH Division 15 and one of the oldest living members of the order in Allegheny County.

He passed from this earth on July 29, 2008 at the age of 90 years old.

Visitation will be held at the John D. O'Connor and Sons Funeral Home at 5106 Second Avenue located in the Hazelwood section of the City of Pittsburgh on Thursday, July 31, from 2-4 p.m. and from 6-8 p.m.

The A.O.H. Memorial Service for Brother O'Malley will be at 7 p.m. at the funeral home. I know this is short notice, but in recognition of his many years of service to his division and his great love for the order I would appreciate it if as many members as possible from throughout Allegheny County could attend the service.

A funeral Mass for Brother O'Malley will be held at the St. Stephen's Church in Hazelwood on Friday, August 1, at 10 a.m.

-- Daniel P. Devinney
President, A.O.H. Allegheny County Board
