Not sure what to say?

On March 14, 1959, Fr. Matthew married Nancy and Me in the Abbey Cathedral. He was a very faithful, holy and generous servant of God and although we have not seen him in years, we always think of him on our Anniversary.

God Bless. A good and faithful servant of Jesus

One of the nicest people I have ever met. He was always so kind and generous to those of us who attended St Helen's Catholic Church. I felt so special to share a birthday with Father Matthew.

You were a loving and devoted brother to my mother. I cherish the memories of your many visits to Maryland over the years. I will miss you.
