In Memoriam

While praising God for His infinite goodness and love, we regret to inform you that our dear friend and member of our parish team, Deacon Richard Haber died suddenly of a heart attack on February 7 in Mexico. His wife Patty Ann and Father Raymond were at his side. 

Let us remember dear Richard in our prayers, and let us pray also for his wife and his children Alexandria, Damian, Julian, Christopher, Daniel, and Jennifer and for Father Raymond. Let us also be grateful for Richards’s life and ministry and may God grant him Eternal Rest.
