Fr. Andrew Apostoli Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 15, 2017.
Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow, but remember me in every tomorrow. Remember the joy, the laughter, the smile; I've only gone to rest a little while. Although my leaving causes pain and grief, my going has eased my hurt and given me relief. So dry your eyes and remember me, not as I am now, but as I used to be. Because, I will remember you all and look on with a smile. Understand, in your hearts, I've only gone to rest a little while. As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.

Every time I hear the song Wagon Wheel by Darius Rucker, I will always remember Father Apostoli. That was the last song I heard before I moved to Florida, and the last time I saw Fr. Apostoli.

Last year May 2017, I attended a Men's Catholic Conference held in Wilkes-Barre, PA. Fr. Andew was a featured speaker & he spoke on the message from Our Lady of Fatima. Men had a chance to get their confession heard by a random selection of about 8 priests while waiting in 1 of 2 long lines. I believe that through divine providence, I got to have my confession heard personally by Fr. Andrew. I could feel his holiness, wisdom & compassion just from the brief encounter that I had with him right there!

About a year latter, I attended the same Men's Conference. It was there that I got the news that Fr. Andrew passed on to be with God forever. I was shocked & saddened but I am also happy for him. I was truly blessed to hear & personally meet this great spiritual giant & thank God for my special meeting with him as he will always be remembered. Peace unto all who read this!

My husband and I looked forward to listening to him on Sunday Night Prime. We also learned so much from him, from his books, and talks on you tube. Even though we live across the country from him and never saw him in person we considered him our spiritual father. He has helped us so much to grow in love for Mary, our mother, and the Holy Spirit. Well really, just to grow in love. We thank and praise God for his life and faithfulness.

Father Andrew gave my daughter her First Holy Communion but even more inspired her to be a faithful follower. For me, his example meant even more. Rest in peace.

I was in the Seminary with Father Andrew. He was a brilliant priest and had great charity. He had a great laugh.

May I remember his example of good-humoured wisdom and gentle kindness. And may I learn to follow this path of love, too. Amen.

Father Apostoli was such a wonderful priest. Just to be in his presence, you could feel the love of Jesus Christ. Both he and his good friend, Father Benedict Groeschel, were two of the holiest priests I have ever had the pleasure to meet. May you forever rest in peace, dear Father Apostoli. I, like so many others, love you and will miss you very much.

Father Andrew touched my life with his gentle ways and inspired me with his deep love of God and those he was called to serve in His Name: the Blessed of the Beatitudes. I will always remember Father with grateful affection and recall his last words of blessing: "May the Lord and His Blessed Mother give you Peace".
