Father Tom was my best friend in ministry. Although he came out of Roman Catholic perspective and I a Protestant, our love for each other and love for ministry transcended all barriers. I will always remember Father Glackin and what he meant in my life and my church.

Father Glackin at First Congregational Church of Naples
Father Glackin was my best friend in ministry. As a progressive priest he was able to cross the line in understanding we are all one in Christ, whether Catholic or Protestant. No one exemplified the message of the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Galatians (3:28) better than Father Glackin, "There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, neither male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus."

A kind soul, a warm heart, a loving friend, a spiritual guide, a generous benefactor, a dedicated priest, a true defender of his faith, and an Irish spirit filled with fun and laughter.
All of these were the essence of Fr. Tom Glackin and are what made him SO endeared to all of us who had the good fortune to know him. We shall miss him dearly, but Our Lord wanted His good and faithful servant Home at last, so we say Rest In Peace, Fr. Tom.
You'll be in our thoughts and prayers,...
