Some people come into our lives and quietly go, others stay for a while leaving footprints on our hearts and we are never quite the same. Father Ladamus gave me hope at a time when I thought there was none. He remains a special friend and one that I will surely miss.

I think of Father often even though he
is not at christ the Redeemer anymore.
I will say a special prayer for a very
special man that he is.
