Read MoreDear John and Family,
I was sad to read about your father's death. He was a kind and gentle man. I met him on several occasions, as he has baptized most of my nieces and nephews at St. George.
I know we lose touch over the years with our busy lives, but want you to know I think about you and wish you and your family well.
Love, Jeannie DiVito

Dear Martha and Family ...
There is no one like your father and at times the loss is confusing and unbearable. As Father Gus once said, the love is never gone, just look up to find it again and again and again.

We knew Deacon Paul when we were parishoners ay St. George from 1978-1995. Paul would always greet our family after mass, and he was affectionally called the "noogie deacon" as he always would give our two sons a rub/blessing on their foreheads. Our sympathies to his family, Paul was a wonderful, caring, and kind individual who will be missed...Sincerely, Chuck & Joanie Lewis

I am so very sorry for your loss. I had the pleasure of singing in the St. George guitar group with Paul for years. No one will ever sing Mary Did You Know like he did. Brought me to tears everytime. He will be missed but now he sings with the angels. Jay and Paul had many a talk about the railroad, as jay worked for the EJ&E for 41 years. Your family is in our prayers. Lynn & Jay Scott
