May 3, 2020

I extend my sincere condolences to the Green family as I remember Father
Green's kindness and words of compassion when my mother died in 1996. His guidance in helping me with the funeral arrangements will always allow me to think of his comforting words at that difficult time. He also informed me that I had taught his sister Carolyn at Payne School, a fact of which I was not aware. He had a way of making one comfortable. Bless him.
