To the family of Father (Leonard) Ferrecchia as he was known to us Father (Leonard) back in the 1960's at Sacred Heart Church Parish in Waltham, he taught me as I became an altar boy back then. Many years ago and fond memories of him as he was in charge of the altar boys. I will always remember his smile and patience as I learned from him and served my first Mass with him as an altar boy. His kind nature and smile always made me feel at ease. The Stigmatine Community has lost a very kind, compassionate, and caring priest. I will always remember him. He is now at peace and in the eternal kingdom of Heaven. He will be missed.
