Obituary of John Roy O’Leary

John "Jack" Roy O’Leary, 62, of Minneapolis, MN, passed away on August 2nd, 2018. Jack's passing came due to a heart attack while doing something he loved, camping with friends. He was born June 20th, 1956 to the late Robert O’Leary & Lavon Morgan. Jack was an amazing father of two and brother to six siblings. Survived by his son Sean (Michelle), daughter Erin, sister Kathy and five brothers; Tim, Mike (Judy), Dan, Tom (Wendy) & Steve. His smile and laugh will be cherished always and his life will be celebrated Tuesday, August 7th @ 7pm. Memorial Service officiated by Pastor Jeff Cowmeadow, held at Calvary Baptist Church, located @ 2608 Blaisdell Ave S, Minneapolis, MN. Calvary is where Jack devoted many of his later years enriching his faith and serving the local community; both important cornerstones of his life. Jack also focused a great deal of his time in youth programs, the fight against social injustice and doing his part to help make the world a better, more peaceful place.

Boyer He never looks for praises He’s never one to boast He just goes on quietly working For those he loves the most His dreams are seldom spoken His wants are very few And most of the time his worries Will go unspoken too He’s there…. A firm foundation Through all our storms of life A sturdy hand to hold to In times of stress and strife A true friend we can turn to When times are good or bad One of our greatest blessings, The man that we call Dad.
