May the god of comfort be a source of strength for your famiy at this difficult time. 2Corn 1:3, 4. Deepest Sympathy, Sue, Concord, NC
It's sad to hear that he passed my grandpa was the same age. I know how it feels. I'm sorry about your loss.
Rest in peace. Thank you for always being at Notre Dame to celebrate the confirmation masses for members of the ND family.
Bishop D'Arcy was a people's bishop. A true shepherd to our flock. Thank you for blessing our diocese with your love!
He was Awesome!! Did his work for God and benefitted many.
I express my condolences to the entire family. Bishop D'Arcy was a wonderful person who did so much for so many people.
Back in 1957, as a young, newly-ordained priest of the Boston Archdiocese, then-Father D'Arcy served for a time as assistant priest at St Elizabeth of Hungary Chapel & Holy Trinity Schools in Roxbury, MA. During those first couple years, it was my honor and privilege to be acolyte at his Masses.
With the souls of the righteous, give rest, O Lord, to the soul of Your servant, the Bishop John, in a place of light, a place of green pastures, a place of repose, where there is neither sorrow nor sighing, but only life everlasting. Forgive him all his sins of word or deed, for You are all merciful and love mankind, and unto to You are due all glory, honor, and worship, together with your Father and Your all-Holy, Good and Life-giving Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages.
May his memory be eternal!
To Sr. Ann, Joan, and all the D'Arcy Family: you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time of the loss of your most loved brother, uncle, and friend. I share in your loss of my special friend and mentor. I cherish the priviledge of having worked with Bishop for eight years and benefitting from his wisdom, example,courage, and love for the people of the diocese. When my mother passed away he invited my sister and I to his home where he said Mass for my mother. I have the rosary he gave me at that time, blessed by Pope John Paul II. He is resting in peace with the God he served so faithfully and selflessly.
Thank you for standing up for Gods laws.
always a pleasure to listen to --remember him as chaplin at ssc
