I am sending our love and condolences from the Quinns on the death of Thomas Martin. I remembered him at Mass this morning with the Carmelites. As I remembered him, I remembered all the Duhigs. There is enough room on the altar, even for a family as large as the Duhigs.
Thomas Martin, May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be always at your back and the sun shine warm upon your face. May the rain fall softly on your fields. Until we meet again, may the Good and loving Lord hold you forever in the palm of His loving hand. RIP.SHALOM
