Commercial Real estate News Summer 2013 Quote for the quarter : True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less. -CS Lewis ocp welcomes Joseph belsito A Tragic Loss- A Family Man, Solar Innovator & Broker At 30 years old Dylan Connelly of Harvard, Massachusetts passed away peacefully in his home in Still River on July 19, 2013. Dylan suffered for seven months with a malignant brain tumor. Among others, Dylan is survived by his wife Nadine and their three small children. Dylan was a friend and neighbor of mine. Dylan came to O’Brien Commercial Properties right out of The Isenberg School of Management at UMASS Amherst in 2005. He quickly became very successful in the commercial real estate business, selling industrial land and buildings. He made many lasting friendships along the way. Dylan moved on to a very successful career in the solar industry and is well known for some landmark deals. Dylan was very intense with extreme sports, passionate in his work and genuine in his relationships. We are deeply saddened by the loss of Dylan and our hearts go out to his parents, siblings, wife and his children. Though he only lived 30 years, he accomplished much and he lived completely.
