Rest in peace Fr. Jack! I will never forget your kindness!!!

I know you were greeted by Angels and escorted into Heaven with Jesus greeting you, Jack!!!
You were a loving, kind, fun, wonderful cousin with whom I have great memories! I loved our times together and always wished for more. You are dearly missed, and I am certain by many, but now Heaven smiles brighter sharing your Loving Heart and Soul.
Love you and Miss you, Jack. (Christmas is a little emptier not hearing from you.)
You hold a Special place in my Heart! God Bless...

Today was especially difficult at mass "without you", and then I realized you truly are with us around the altar / the way you taught us!
Prayers continue for his family. On Easter it will be six months since the last time Jack was physically at mass with us but it doesn't get easier. The more one has been loved by...

Fr. McKenna, you will truly be missed by many. May you rest in God's love! However, I will truly miss your love, kindness, great smile, and great homilies! RIP - Sincerely, Linda Tarabochia
