Peter Fries

I met Peter in August of 1962 when we both entered the Franciscan Novitiate in Catskill, NY. After that we were in the Immaculate Conception College of Philosophy, Troy, NY. Academically I was one year ahead of Peter. He left the college in 1965. I saw him several times between then and my ordination in 1970. Sometime in the 1990's I reconnected with Peter via the internet but then lost contact with him when his computer was stolen. He eventually tracked me down on the internet in the early...

I met Peter some thirty-eight years ago sharing our mutual interest in church sacramentals. Peter always lived his "Franciscan spirit" with joy for all he met. Condolences to Lowell and the Fries Family. May Perpetual Light shine upon Peter forever.

My condolences to the bereaved family of Mr. Fries. May you be comforted by reflecting on the many wonderful memories that you can cherish forever. Also you can look forward to the removal of all causes of death and the heartaches it brings.
