I knew Owen as an extremely kind and caring person with a happy go lucky personality. I may not have seen him a lot, but when I did, he always greeted me with a huge hug along with that fantastic smile of his. My Italian sister Dora and her son Angelo attended Alyvia's 1st Birthday party at Armeline's house. Angelo has a disability; and he felt SO comfortable with Owen; don't get me wrong ... Everyone made him feel comfortable and welcome, but there was just something about Owen that Angelo really liked, connected with. Owen talked to him, made him feel extremely welcome and didn't treat him as if he had a disability. Angelo and my sister Dora have never forgotten that; and when she told him about his passing, he was very sad to hear it. Anyway, I am keeping Owen and his family in my thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time, and I just want to say that I love them all. ❤️
