Condolence: I was so sorry to hear about Wally O’Brien’s passing. Wally and I were colleagues at the Adams School for a number of years and we also carpooled together from Searsport. I loved our daily conversations to and from the Adams School. He not only mentored me, and I truly think he was instrumental in helping me to be hired back at the Adams School in August of 1990. I have to say that he was a mentor to everyone, and me who worked at the Adams School. I will never forget when he told me on the way home, in January of 1999, I had better draw water in the bathtub because the red berries on the trees were prolifically red. I didn’t believe him. Little did I know…we were in for the Great Ice Storm of 1999. I believed everything he said after that!

Condolence: I'm so sorry to hear of Mr. O'Brien's passing. I was his student in the 80's at Adams' school. I remember a lot of good times, missing classes to play softball on the common, just because it was spring and a nice afternoon. Besides he was always willing to give me extra help and extra assignments to bring my science grade up. I think every class he had probably heard about the time his youngest son peed in his homemade brew he was brewing. Scraping the lunch trays for him to take the slop home for the pigs. He was also the reason I started reading more, he had told my class about how he was a poor reader, and he started reading comics to improved his reading skills as a child. That is what I started doing before my eight grade year too, now I'm currently in college making the deans list. My deepest condolences to his family friends and loved ones.
