In his own words: “The best part of life is, and has been, the Priesthood. In spite of my failures and fumblings God has regularly used me as a channel of His presence in the lives of others. To me, that is profoundly reassuring. It links the reality of the past years to the vision which drew me to this life.”

Monsignor demanded the best from all of us and from himself he demanded meticulous and devout attention to the sacred sacrifices he offered at the altar of God. He faithfully and joyfully administered the sacraments to his people. He was a frequent visitor to their homes, which he blessed. He was a renowned speaker. His sermons stirred the hearts and minds of everyone from the brilliant to the meek. Being fond of doing well everything he did, he was skilled master on a ski hill and a champion on the golf course. He is noted for making a barn dance an attraction that could draw countless numbers of his parish pews. He was the center of every family holiday. Family events would always commence with Holy Mass and be followed by a celebration of endless laughter and joy.

Monsignor was a priest according to the order of Melchizedek. His labour in the service of God was a labour of love and that was reflected in the love held for him by his parishioners. He will be mourned and missed by all who knew him.
