Danny
Rest In Peace with Jesus, Mary, and your deceased family in heaven.
I remember playing basketball with you and Bobby in our back yard driveway hoop in Secane down the road and across the street from OLF on South Ave . You both are great guys and I always looked up to both of you.

Father Devine (Danny) thanks for teaching me how to swim at Sherwood Pool. I have many good memories of you and your brothers, you were great B-ballplayers. I have nothing but good memories while spending time with my grandparents who lived next door to your home. Rest in Gods arms. John Monaghan

The Holy Catholic Priest

I saw him climb the altar steps
His white head bowed in prayer,
His hands, those grace full hands of his
Bless all assembled there.

And in his face, that holy face,
I saw the years gone by
And all the love and sacrifice
They meant for you and I.

The Sacred Host, the Golden Cup
Raised time and time again,
The hallowed feet that rush to serve
In ways that never end.

We thank you, God, for this great gift
To say the very least,
The incense of humanity
The Holy Catholic Priest.

I was shocked to hear of the passing of Fr. Devine. Will miss our bantering. Fr Devine married my husband and I in 1994. He will be sadly missed. RIP
