Fr. Duffy Thank you for all that you have done. His kindness and wisdom wil stay with me always. Father Duffy was from Cardondale PA the same hometown as my father, Michael Perry. He was kind enough to celebrate both my mother's and my father's funreral masses. He will be greatly missed, I regret that I cannot attend his furneral mass or his internment as I am deployed with the military.
