Fr. James O'Gara

I wish to express my gratitude and reverence to a great priest and a wonderful man.
Father James O'Gara had a great love for the new Italian immigrants at Saint Peters Parish in Toronto.
My family, among many others, was one of those whom he touched with his care and kindness.
He came into our lives as a young priest from Chicago. He must have been in his late twenties then.
He took interest in the Italian immigrants and to communicate better, he learned Italian and entered...

Visited our offices to say weekly Mass despite a long commute. He was kind, gentle, and always upbeat. I wish I could have met him earlier. RIP Father.

A great priest of Jesus, a kind person to all, helping us whom he met in his journey through life, treating all ...doing unto others....as his brothers and sisters in God. arthur Murphy...

In loving memory to the man who left one of the biggest impressions on my life and gave me moral direction. To me and many others he was a father figure and a great leader. I wish I could have spoken more to him but he has already departed to a better place. I wish for him to rest in everlasting peace.

Dear Larry and Family:

We are very sorry for your loss. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and all of your family at this difficult time.

Father Jim had a kind and gentle manner in his words and actions. He married us October 21,1972. May he rest in peace with the other angels in heaven. Love and peace John and Ruth Palis
