Thank you, Father Tom, for your dedication to being a Catholic priest. It was a pleasure getting to know you when I worked at St. Michael Catholic church. Also, to have you be our son Jonathan's officiant for his first holy communion. Eternal rest grant upon you and may perpetual light shine upon you.

I was deeply saddened to learn that Fr. Sieg passed away. My family all loved him when he was pastor of St. Patrick's in Edina, MN. Our friendship continued throughout the years. Father was truly a Priests' Priest. RIP. Marietta Munster and Family
