James "Jim" Thomas O'Brien

I want to say that you were awesome. Everytime I saw you I always asked who you were subbing for because I love it when you sub for me. I will never be miss. Everyone enjoyed you. Rest in peace. You're not hurting or suffering. Just have to move on and think about the good things. I will miss you. R.I.P.

To the O'Brien Family:

Sorry to hear about Jim (Husband, Father). He is in a much better place now. He is not suffering any longer. Your family is my family (Kenneth and Jenny Knowles) and my thoughts and prayers.

Sincerely,
Michelle Norris and family (The Knowles)

Dear Sylvia & Family,
Rejoice today, for Jim has joined his Heavenly Father and is no longer in pain. We loved him and will miss him. You will remain in our thoughts and prayers. May God bless all of you.

Mr. O'Brien was such a great man and a wonderful influence to many. I am so glad that I got the chance to know him. He always knew how to make someones day at West Brook. From his stories he told to his signature on the chalkboard when we walked in class. He is in a much better place and my prayers are with everyone and his family.

Sylvia, my condolences to you and your family. Jim was a very special man and substitute teacher. I learned a lot from him as a fellow substitute teacher. I will miss Jim. God bless you and your familly.

To the whole family - no words can express my feelings during this time just know that prayers are going out and will continue to. Mr. O'Brien was wonderful! He was one in a million and was a joy. Know that he is no longer hurting and that he is watching over all of you. I was the one that was "BLESSED" to have known him. God bless you all! Hugs to all of you!
