Evan James O'Reilly - August 7, 1983 to May 22, 2018

From the O'Reilly family ....


We lost Evan earlier this week as a result of complications from a liver condition he had battled with courage and quiet dignity for his entire life. Evan was a loving son and best friend to his mother, Lourdes Harville, of Lexington, Kentucky, and his father, Terry O’Reilly, of Salisbury, Massachusetts. He is survived by his parents and by his maternal grandparents, Myrta and Miquel Ramirez, his brother Conor O’Reilly, his step-sister Alisha Macky, his step-mother Judie O’Reilly and many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends. Evan was predeceased by his paternal grandparents, Audrey and Jim O’Reilly.

​

Evan lived in Georgetown for most of his life.  He was active in student politics at Georgetown High School, serving as class president for his final two years before graduating from there in 2002. As a Selectman on the town council for a two-year term from 2008 to 2010, Evan was a strong advocate for seniors, for the environment and for financial accountability. Evan’s pursuit of a career in hotel management took him to Lexington for about five years, initially as an internal service auditor for Marriott Hotels and later as an external auditor with Deloitte. He returned to the Georgetown area in 2017 in a management role with Jamson Hotel Management. While managing these various full-time roles, Evan also worked towards a business administration degree through part-time programs at the University of Massachusetts.

Evan was an avid sports enthusiast and a lifelong fan of all the Boston-area professional sports teams, the Bruins first among them. From an early age he loved to fish with family and friends at the family cottage on Lake Kashawakamak, three hours’ drive north-east of Toronto, Canada.  In later years he came to enjoy “Kash” as much for the peacefulness and remoteness of the place and the opportunity it represented for quiet times with family and friends.  Evan was a true friend to his friends – ready and willing at a moment’s notice, to endure a nine hour drive in each direction for the sake of friendship.

Evan’s family extends their heartfelt thanks to the health-care professionals at Exeter NH hospital and Beth Israel hospital, Boston, for their care and commitment for Evan over the past month.

Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Conte-Giamberardino Funeral Home, Pleasant Street, Georgetown, MA.  A funeral mass will be held at 11:00 am on Thursday, May 31, 2018 at St. Mary’s Church, 94 Andover Street, Georgetown, MA, with a reception to follow.  Friends and family are invited to visit with Evan’s family at St. Mary’s Church from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Wednesday, May 30, 2018.

For those who wish, in lieu of flowers, Evan’s family would appreciate donations to the American Liver Foundation (https://liverfoundation.org) or to the Sister Bernadette Scholarship Fund at Rossbrook House Inc. (www.rossbrookhouse.ca), or to another charity of your choice.

I'm so sorry for your loss. My uncle was Dan Canney & my family are die hard Bruins fans. My late sister loved Terry, he was her favorite player ! We lost my sister after a liver transplant, so I know how hard your son fought. The O'Reilly family will be in my prayers🙏🏻.

Terry- Very sorry to learn this news about your Evan, especially when I often reflect on the wonderful memories you've provided me and my son. Please know that the millions of people you have touched through hockey and charity work are praying for you and your family-no doubt we all wish there were some way of lightening the weight of these hard times.

In this year of unfathomable tragedy & bold triumphs in this big broad ever-expanding hockey community of ours I express my deepest condolences to the O'Reilly family for their loss of their beloved Evan. With the battle he faced all his life most of us take our acceptable health conditions for granted sometimes, for most it's a "I'll get to the gym tomorrow" or "I've been meaning to give up junk food" promises & ill-intended goals. For the life-long battlers of chronic body function afflictions such as Evan endured there's really no more important or urgent issues as getting through your day with as much strength as you can muster. These private personal battles in a lot of cases sadly have their way & take away very special people, when it's over the weight of that sadness cannot be measured. Only through immense strength & shear love can the survivors cope with this type of loss, the Humboldt Broncos cope with their tragic loss with the same virtues plus the enormous support & outpouring from the worldwide hockey community. To the O'Reilly family I say be strong & remember every second of joy Evan brought to everyone in his brief but memorable time here, be steadfast in your belief that he is now at peace....
