Dear Family, again I’m heartbroken, Another friend was called by Jesus to Heaven ! We were BFF for over fifty yrs ! His Parents were Saints , and so was Rich ! He was married to the church and loved Jesus, mother Mary, St Joseph & all the Saints ! How fitting he’s in Heaven just ahead of St Joseph feast day ! His Father was very active and an Holy Name Society officer @ St Andrew ‘s ! Rich was active there & @St Thomas More too! Many Fish Fry’s we volunteered together, which were always successful for the parish ! Rich also attended numerous wake / visitations of Holy Name Club members and church parishioners! God bless him& His Family! Ad Glorium Dei Majorem, Requiem in pace ! Well done my faithful servant ,now enter into the joys of Paradise 🙏🇺🇸📿🛐🥇in Heaven 👼😇👏👏👏☦️✝️
