Msgr. McManus baptised me at St. Leo's in 1948. He was always happy when someone advised him that they were baptized by him. May Msgr. Rest in the Hands of the Lord forever.

Father Mac, a dear friend to me and my husband Ray, blessed our lives from the time he arrived from Ireland and began to serve the people of St. Leo's until the day God called him home to his heavenly reward. My family and I will always cherish the friendship we had with this beloved priest, and we are grateful to his family for sending him to Texas with their blessing many years ago!

I am very sorry for your lost. I can imagine how heartbreaking it is to lose a loved one, but its uplifting to know that God promises us in Isaiah 65:17 a near future in which not only we wont feel this horrid pain in our hearts when we lose a loved one, but we wont even remember how it felt.
