Dear Family of Rev. Monsignor Ed Spiers,
Father was a dear freind of my great uncle and spent considerable time explaining to my family what kind of person my great uncle was when he lived on earth.
I would like to say the same about your Father Ed--goodness--inside and out. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Sister Agnes Cousins

Thank you Father for all during my time at The Bishop Watterson High School. It takes a long time to realize what we were given back then because of you. Thank you.

Although we left Columbus in 1965, we have always fondly remembered Watterson and Msgr. Spiers. Our children, Kathleen, Father Bill, and Tom, enjoyed their years under Msgr.'s leadership. He will be in our prayers.

My deepest sympathies to Msgr. Spires family, friends and our Bishop Watterson community. Msgr. Spires was an avid supporter of BWHS in many ways until his death. May perpetual light shine upon him; may he rest in peace and have eternal life.

The Serra Club of Knox/Licking Deanery expresses sincere condolences and prayers to the family and friends of Fr. Spiers. May Our Lord and His Mother comfort you during this difficult time.
Our Serra Club for Vocations has a new program called "Adopt A Priest" and a pin with Fr. Spiers initials and date of Ordination will be arriving with our first shipment of pins. He was to be adopted in prayer by a person in our deanery. I would like for a member of his family, his sister to wear his pin as a gift from Serra Club. Family may contact me at 1-740-763-3645 or e-mail if you wish to have his pin. I will need a name and address to send the pin to.
May God Bless you,
Patricia Laughman, President
Knox/Licking Serra Club

An eerie coincidence...out of the blue the other day popped into my head: What IS 'Uncle Eddie's' last name? Spiers bubbled up out of some dusty corner of my memory. Deepest sympathy to the Yoakem family, all of whom I remember fondly...especially Grandma Lillian Spiers.

I did not know Msgr. Spiers personally, but two of my daughters were recepients of the prestegious Msgr Spires Community Service award at Watterson. This award has helped them achieve goals within Watterson and in admission to their respective universities. Thanks to Msgr Spiers for his dedication to the Watterson community. I will keep all of your family in my thoughts and prayers.
