Thank you, for all of the pro-life marches you saw to in Jacksonville. You will be missed in our community!

Although we had only a brief time to share with Fr Macey it was a blessing we'll always cherish. He will indeed be missed.

Father:
Your time at St Charles was a very important time in the life of our family. Because of your compassion, kindness and your unflagging willingness to make a difference: Jonathan and our daughter Nichole were finally able to be married in the Church; our grandchildren Matthew, Daniel, Jason , Kaylie and Makenna were baptized in the Church and Jonathan and Makenna, Kaylie and Jason all entered formally into the Faith. Four of the grandchildren went on to Catholic school and Jonathan...

Wonderful Pastor and a beautiful example of what being a Catholic is all about! Father you have truly left a void, but thanks for everything!

I had the honor and pleasure of getting to know Fr. Jim when he was a priest at St. Francis Xavier Church. I enjoyed his sermons and the fact that he walked around the church while he was doing so. He was a very intelligent man and interesting speaker. He made an impact in the short time he was with us. May he rest in peace and know he made a difference!

May God take you to Himself, Fr. Jim. I will also remember you and your kind heart, especially as president of our seminary class at Pope St. John XXIII.

You will be remembered in my prayers and at Mass on August 25 and at all Masses at St. Joseh in Largo, MD this weekend.

May our loving God give your family strength and peace at this difficult time.

Always your brother in Christ,
Roy E Campbell, Jr

God bless you, Jim. I'm so happy that you are with Juanita and all the Saints in Heaven. Fr. Dan Pisano

I'm so sorry for your loss.

May the God of all comfort, bring comfort to the Macey family during these difficult times.

(2 Corin.1:3,4)

Father Macey was such a gift to the parishioners of St. Charles. We know you feel his loss greatly but know that you are not alone. He will be missed by so many! He was truly a wonderful man and we feel fortunate to have known him.
