Andrew,
Sincerely saddened that your father has passed. Your father was very dear and very kind. Enjoyed seeing and talking with him at St. Paul’s. He and your mother are together again. Always in your heart they will be.

I will miss seeing your father at St. Paul Church so much. He was such a kind, caring man! For many years after I became Catholic, Doc was such wonderful support for me, as he helped guide me through the missal in daily Mass. I actually met you once when you were home on leave and attended daily Mass with your father. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Andrew. Doc will be sorely missed. Vi and Bob Hutton
