Renee, Nicole and I offer our prayers and kind thoughts to the Daprai Family. Sorry, I just heard about Tony. You and your family still bring smiles and happy thoughts.

And the world goes around and around. You became a priest and I converted to Catholicism. Little did we know the great plans God had for us. You touched so many lives and continue to do so even after your passing. God Bless you and your family.

to Tony: my dear friend, you made a differnce in my life, enjoy your rewards as God has prepared for you.
to Tony's family and friends: my deepest sympathy to you on hearing of Tony's passing. May you find peace in knowing he is home, enjoying God's blessings as He has prepared it for him.
Rest in peace Tony, you were loved by many~

My friend was a decent and caring person whom provided inspired joy to those he knew. I was lucky to know his great passion and compassion. I miss him greatly. My thoughts and prayers are with his wonderful parents,and sibs-Theresa, Paul, Maria-and all of his family and friends. God bless him always.

I knew Tony as Father Damien from Marmion Abbey. Unfortunately, I did not have a chance to get to know him well, but thought of him as someone who always spoke from his heart. I recall one Saturday morning mass where several of us were moved to congratulate him for his brave and holy words during his homily. I introduced myself and went on my way. Several weeks later, I happened to be walking to the chapel at Marmion, and someone was calling out to me, "Hello John!" I thought to myself,...

Father Damien I wil miss you. I really enjoyed your homilies. Rose R
