A beloved friend of our family.
Fr. Duffey married and baptized so many of us..he was such a kind soul and a wonderful person to have a conversation with be it spiritual or sports-Fr. Duffey was a man for all season and he is deeply missed. Our 4 year son to whom Fr. Baptized asked "when are we picking up Fr. Duffey for Thanksgiving"-our holidays will not be the same without him. God has a great man with him!
