The funeral service was simultaneously magnificent, and sublime. I am so happy to have been there to celebrate the passing of the abbott. I know that he was taken up to be with God.
I am so very sorry to learn of Jack's (Abbot Patrick's) death. I have fond memories of our good friendship and companionship at Holy Cross. Whatever he did, he did well. So it is no surprise that he was an excellent priest (one of two produced by our Holy Cross Class of 1955), monk. and abbot of St. Joseph Abbey. My sincere condolences to his family.
