Not sure what to say?

Thank you, Fr. Creedon for your kindness and your living witness to the love of God. I remember you speaking at Blessed Sacrament about how you came to a new church out of the US and the people there taught you that THEY - not the building - were the CHURCH. That was something you already knew, I think, but you told that story that we might know it. You touched many lives and those of us whom you touched will not forget your gracious spirit. See you on the other side.

May Fr Creedon rest in peace. A wonderful priest and great inspiration. I was fortunate to know him from Blessed Sacrament. God be with you. Thank you for being a wonderful priest.

We will miss you Father Gerry.
Rest and Peace

I remember the day and the hour that he presented our Daughter Eva to us at St Marks Catholic church a day when he also played his fiddle for us as a family receiving this wonderful gift of a daughter. He was the priest in charge of Catholic Charities at the time. He did many memorable jobs for our diocese. May he rest in peace.

May Fr. Gerry Creedon rest in peace. What a wonderful priest, musician, singer, golfer, and a much greater and larger personality than the rest of us. Shocker when I heard the sad news today at Ireland's Four Provinces where we were for Thanksgiving Dinner.

Fr. Creedon was a wonderful priest and pastor. he touched many lives over his wonderful service to the priesthood. He will be forever a valued member of the extended Murray family and the Arlington community he served before moving to Dale City. Rest in peace, Gerry.

Padre Gerardo, Muchas gracias for your friendship
In Banica, and as your "pre-uber" driver to Hyannis.

Our thoughts and prayers have been with the beloved priest who made a difference in our lives from the time we arrived in the Northern VA/D.C. area -- almost 20 years ago. He provided comfort and guidance in the ways of the Lord; beyond compare. His Irish family is close to our own, out of County Cork. May the Lord bless and keep his soul with those of the saints. Mike, Nora,Jennifer and Martin, the Smith family

Father Gerry- Your spiritual love and teachings will live on forever in our hearts and at Holy Family Catholic Church where we will keep your memory alive as you look down on us. Thank you for being a great pastor and friend to us all. My older two children had their 1st Communion under your spiritual leadership at Holy Family which we will always treasure as a family deep in our hearts! May you Rest In Peace.
