another sad day


Almost exactly a year ago, I had a post honoring my grandpa. It has been a tough year without him, and now almost to the day, I am writing to let you know that our dear friend Father Jerry has gone home to be with the Lord. Jerry was the priest at the church I grew up in, and he married all three of us girls. He has been a great friend for over 20 years, and his smile will always be missed. But with our sorrow comes the joy of knowing that God called him home, and the peace that when he got there, he was greeted with "Well done, good and faithful soldier." He was an amazing man of God, and a great example of walking in faith.

We love and miss you Jerry. Say hi to God and grandpa for me!
