My sincere and deepest condolences to the family of Felix.
Dear Robert, Ann, Irene, Mary and Therese:
Its been a while, but my dad and I were very good friends with Felix and Helen. We worked together at the monastery's gift shop for many years. Those were the most memorable and wonderful years and fond memories. Felix was an exceptional person and faithful servant to our Lord and to the monastery.
It was always nice to see his smile when he was talking about his family. I will always remember our Saturday night dinners after the Latin Mass at the monastery. The interesting discussions between my dad and Felix, and nice times we had going on purchasing trips for the gift shop, to the Catholic conventions in Chicago. I often think of your mom Helen, whom I loved very much.
And now they are together again, with our Lord.
All my thoughts and prayers are with you and your entire family.
Rest in peace Felix and hug Helen for me,
Elizabeth
