I will offer the holy sacrifice of the Mass here at Maryknoll, New York, for my dear friend and benefactress Marie Colton. I knew Marie for more than 50 years, when she was a parishioner at our home parish of Saint Joseph's, Hyde Park, MA. After Saint Joseph's closed in 2004, Marie continued to attend the Masses and events of the Companions of Saint Joseph's. Indeed, until just a few months ago, Marie continued to send me a monthly contribution to help the poor in Bangladesh (where I served as a Maryknoll missioner from 1979 until 2021. Prayerful condolences to Larry and all the family. Marie, I look forward to meeting you again in heaven! Much love from Father Bill McIntire, Maryknoll, New York, January 02, 2023.
