Rev. Monsignor Frank C. Wissel

Rest in peace Monsignor Wissel. He was the best psychology and home room teacher at St. Pascal Babylon High School. Had a great sense of humor and a big heart. He was good friends to my brother and sister-in-law James & Carole Kababik. Their children loved the fun tricks he did like pulling a coin from their ears. They still remember his kindness.

Hey Pops, RIP now. You were part my family for 38 years. Thank you for friendship and wisdom. God bless you. I will miss you....

With deepest sympathy

I always enjoyed our conversations and visits. You will be missed . Sandi Peduto and Richard

He touched many and will missed by many...

One of life's true heroes and will remain so in the after life forever.

Frank Wissel was a fellow alumnus of mine at St. Francis Prep in Brooklyn, NY. He graduated in 1956, the year after me. I joined the Franciscan Brothers of Brooklyn, but he waited awhile to follow his vocation to the priesthood. Frank was a good friend of the Franciscan Brothers. The people of the Diocese of Bridgeport have lost a kind and gentle priest, too soon. May he rest in peace.

We all send our prayers and
Thanks, for the father sending
us so many of his blessed
shepards over the years because of priest like you is the reason we are still here.
Peace Out..

Dear Msgr. Wissel, there are no words that can express the sadness that all of your flock feel at the sudden loss of our Shepherd. We were resigned to let you retire but always assumed that we could visit & once again hear a joke or a pearl of wisdom.God called you home knowing that you were weary & longed for His comfort.Although for us it was much too soon, we are sure that you are at peace & no longer suffering. Thank you Father,mentor,teacher,confessor,advisor,brother ,role model & friend. No one can replace you.....you are Love. Xoxo The Altomaro Family

Monsignor, I remember when you used to imitate Ralph, from the honeymooners. You were hilarious. I will never forget you.
Of course you were from Brooklyn. Thank you very much for everything you did for me. Even though I wasn't with you on your last days. I've been thinking about you everyday. Your heart was weak because you gave it to all your people.
Thank you Monsignor.

Monsignor. I lihgt a candle because you will always be alive in my heart. DON'T YOU EVER GORGET IT...Your words my dearest friend.

Msg Wissel was a major part of the KC family. My 4 yrs there were awesome and partly due to MSg. Wissel. he will missed greatly by all. We have another KC family member in heaven to watch us know. You will be loved.

God has added another angel to heaven now and he truly is in a better place with God. He will truly be missed.

Dear Msgr. Wissel - First memory of you coming to St. Mary's Parish in 1997 is one of kindness and compassion. You assured me the commute to my new job from Greenwich to Bridgeport would be safe as it was going to be a "mild winter". I've enjoyed all your encouraging homilies and wonderful articles written in Greenwich Citizen. You will be dearly missed by all and will always remain in our hearts. Love & Peace

Monsignor Wissel was a true blessing to everyone. He will be truly missed but without a doubt he will be praying for all of us and especially all the children. May you know that you have touched the hearts of so many people. We thank you for your kindness, compassion, wisdom and guidance. Rest in Peace!

God bless you Msgr. Wissel. Thank you for all your love and support over the years. We love and will miss you. You were in-residence at St. Peter's Parish in Bridgeport when we were there. You were also Lori & Lisa's principal at Kolbe Cathedral. Thank you for everything. Rest in peace.

Compassionate and Understanding and one who lived the Corporal and Spiritual works of mercy on a daily basis. The World is a little poorer today and heaven richer.

Rest in peace monsignor, thank you for all you have done for me and my family...

May God hold you in his hand and receive you home. Thank you for becoming a priest and serving use for all these years. I remember you from Blessed Sacrament church in Bpt. Rest in peace Irene Petrone Orosz the Petrone Family

Msgr. Wissel was an extraordinary priest and a good friend for many years. I was privileged to work on an Emmaus weekend with him when he was principal at Kolbe Cathedral High School. I met many of the young men who lived at his Kolbe House of Studies and wrote about them for the NY Times and Sacred Heart magazine, and, much later, I had the good sense to hire him to write a weekly column for the Greenwich Citizen. Msgr. Frank, you did good work and now may you rest in peace.

Msgr. Wissel was truly Christ on earth. I am humbled and grateful to know him and have him touch my life. He lives always in my heart.

Rest in peace Monsignor, thank you for all you've done. May you have a wonderful new life in heaven.

My Dear Father Frank, I am in shock and Numb but Grateful that you helped my three sons who were in big need growing up . May God grant you the Highest Heavens, rest in Peace
