Not sure what to say?

You befriended my dad when you first came to America and the two of you attended minor league ballgames together. I'll never forget your stirring eulogy at his funeral, ending with "Safe at home, Jack." That still brings tears to my eyes. You baptised my children and remained a good friend to me and my sister til the end. We miss you, JC. The Pub will always seem empty without the prospect of our meeting you there for lunch. May God bless you and keep you forever close to Him. With love and...

I think a father core often. He was a friend of my family, performed christenings for my children and was a good friend with whom my sister and I often had lunch. I miss him!

Dear Uncle Jack,
Your departure (without my permission )
has left a huge void in my life.
So much of my life during Summer holidays are spent in Morristown.
It is not the same without you being there. I am sad when I drive by your home and you are not sitting in your chair reading and watching the world go by! They are large time voids in my days when I am in Morristown as I am not spending them with you. But you have left me a lifetime of memories that are filled with...

Uncle Jack
much missed
love Lorna

My uncle Jack has been a huge part of my life for so many years. I have been holidaying in Morristown for over twenty years and my memories of him would fill many a book! Through him I have met scores of people that have enhanced my life. We met every day on my holidays, and everyday was filled love, laugher and sunshine. His twinkling eyes lit up the room. Morristown is a lonelier place without him, but it will be rocking in Heaven!
I know from all the parishioners I have met that you...

RIP

I can remember coming home from Vietnam just before Christmas in 1970, and my father telling me to go to confession at CTK. I said "nless me father for I have sinned, it's been over a year since my last confession, so let's make this a general confession, I think I've committed just about every sin possible" Father Corr asked.."surely you haven't killed anyone?" I answered, afraid so..Father Corr said, "Is that you Eddie, your father told me you were due home...welcome back!" I'll never...

Monsignor Corr, I just heard of your passing. You were a part of our life from so early on. You taught my mother, who has since passed, at
Bayley Ellard. You married my sister and brother, and presided over my
grandmother's funeral. We became
parishioners when we moved to New Vernon. I remember your visits
to our home and how much they
meant to my mother. Before she passed, she asked us not to tell you because of your health. She loved you all of her life, as my...
