Rev. Fr. Thomas J. FITZGERALD SSS

Happy Birthday Fr. Tom!
This day would have been your 77th birthday. All the same, Happy Birthday!

Oh, I cried when I read my beloved Spiritual Director, Fr. Fitz passed away.
He's a very loving n joyful person. He always remembered my voice whenever I called him though we haven't seen each

Dear Fr. Tom, Just today Iearned of your promotion...into The Real Presence. We have been friends since the first grade at St. Jean's...love you, Tom...save me a seat at the Banquet. Garrett Muldoon

I was at your ordination in St. Jeans. My mother was a Fitzgerald (Ellen) and my Aunt and Uncle Walter & Mamie Cummins were well known to you Father.

Oh, Father, I cried when I heard of you leaving San Antonio and now I cry at the news of your death. You were always so welcoming….I miss you so much - we all do. I still remember Colette running up to you, as you processed down the isle (after Mass) and giving you a hug - and you hugging her back - each and every time we were there. There is another Saint in heaven. Love and Miss you Father ~ Rose Heusinger, San Antonio, Texas
