Was so saddened to hear of the passing of Fr. Pritt. Just found out this afternoon and found that I missed services that happened this morning. I worked with Fr.

He will be a wonderful guardian angel to all he left behind.

It has been a great privilege and gift to share life and ministry with Phil at Our Lady Help of Christian Parish and over the years since then. I learned so much from this warm, compassionate, creative friend/priest and came to experience Church in a new way. May his care for others live on through all of us now and may we never forget how to laugh or hug!
