John F. "Jack" O'Malley

Message from Fort Collins, CO

I just found this obituary online and was so incredibly sad to read of Dr O’s passing. He was on of a kind. I met Dr O as an undergraduate at Notre Dame. He helped me and 3 other girls establish a physical therapy club at ND 25 years ago. He was a fantastic teacher, mentor, and friend with a one of a kind sense of humor and grace. My heart is so sad. Thank you Dr O. I will miss you, my friend.

Message from The Pavis Family

Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire O'Malley family during this difficult time. Mr. O'Malley was always such a kind and welcoming gentleman and he will be missed.

Message from Dr. Sunah Kim Dorantes, South Ben’s class 2000-2001

Condolences to the family of Dr. O’Malley, a dedicated educator and a compassionate person. Anatomy was my first and favorite class.

An unassuming, yet brilliant man. A kind man. A sterling man. A blessing to so many. Requiem æternam dona ei, Domine . . .

I was blessed to know Dr. O'Malley and have many fond memories of him and my medical school anatomy class. Although I may have forgotten the 50 salient features of the sphenoid bone, I'm sure none of us will every forget his words on the first day of class. He told us we would fail the first anatomy test - and we did. As over-achieving aspiring young physicians, we were used to being challenged, but not used to failure. He taught us to be humble. He taught us to persevere. He taught us more than anatomy. I was blessed to have him as a mentor. Cherish the lifetime of memories you made with him.
