PRAYER TO ST. RITA

Oh God, in your infinite mercy you looked with love on your faithful servant Rita and granted through her intercession that which is beyond the power of mankind and the wisdom of this world. Through that love which bound St.Rita to you turn to us in mercy and aid us in our difficulties.

Grant that all may come to know that...

To a wonderful man and priest. Thank you for my conversion and for marring us. I will never forget you at Cambridge City Hospital. You will always remain in my heart.

Thanks for shareing your priesthood and friendship with us. Good memories. May God Bless you and may you rest in peace. Jean and Pat Basque

Remembering Fr. John from his frst assignment in North Weymouth where he became part of our family, The DiTullio's. All through my childhood, he was always there. I know he is at peace and hanging out now with my Mom in heaven. The DiTullio family sends its' sincerest sympathies to his family.

Mary, our condolences to you and your family. I remember John at the Cadet Reunion, marching and singing with us. I also remember your Dad's daily visits to St. Rita's, and your Mom and mine visiting on the phone, and co-chairing the Ladies Card Luncheon. Good memories!

I will always remember Fr. Silk as Harry becuase of a very cute joke he once told. What a wonderful priest he was. May God rest your soul Fr. Silk.

Thank you for sharing your priesthood with the parishoners and me at St. Mary, Wrentham. I will never forget you. God Bless.

May our old friend, Fr. Silk from Holy
Ghost Hospital to St. Joseph's Church
where he baptised our daughters,
Rest in Peace.
