My Most Wonderful and Favourite brother of my "Grandpa Joe".

Father HOSTY was my favorite at ST. ANGELA in the 40s. I was lucky enough to serve his Masses many times. His sermons were wonderful and I'd love to get a copy of his "SMALL TALKS FOR SMALL PEOPLE" if anyone knows were to find one. GOD BLESS YOU FATHER. REQIESCAT IN PACE

Nehemiah 8: 9-10 "This day is holy unto the Lord your God. Mourn not nor weep. For all the people wept when they heard the words of the law. Go your way, eat the fat and drink the sweet. Send portions to them whom nothing is prepared. This day is holy unto our Lord. Neither be ye sorry. The joy of the Lord is your strength!"
