A farewell to a friend....

Our first friend from when we moved to this area, our beloved pastor, died this week. He would have been 88 years old tomorrow. He confirmed our son and baptized Asrat. He wrote a letter of recommendation for us for our homestudy. He helped me find a job up here. He's helped our family in so many ways, both large and small. He was a wonderful, active, vibrant man of God. He was instrumental in bringing Lifeteen to our parish. He was also very active in the business community and in jobs creation in our city. He had such a wonderful life. He will be very missed. His funeral on Friday was standing room only in the large Cathedral and even our Bishop cried.

Monsignor Cappo, we love you and you will be sorely missed.

God is good.....All the time
All the time.....God is good
