Dear Friends,

Please pray for my wife's and my friend, Paul Furey, who is dying of cancer. He is a man who dedicated his adult years to the apostolate of catechesis for the Church. Please pray that, barring any miraculous intervention, Our Lord and the Blessed Theotokos would be close to him in his dying moments and that they would console his many grieving family members and friends.

We are asking for the intercession of The Servant of God, Pope John Paul the Great.

Here is a link to his Caring Bridge website:

Thank you.

In ICXC,

Father Deacon Daniel

May Jesus the Lover of Mankind have mercy on His servant Paul. May the Virgin of Perpetual Help bring Paul peace of both mind and of heart!

Thank you all, friends, for your kind prayers.

This was posted on his Caring Bridge site today:

Quote:
At about 1:00 this morning, Paul drifted into unconsciousness, and has remained so. He seems to be resting comfortably. He is very well cared for, and surrounded by those who love him.

It appears that we are very close to the end. please remember him and his family and friends.

God bless,

Fr. Deacon Daniel

Dear Friends,

My dear brother in Christ, Paul Furey, passed away this evening at 5:35pm after a courageous fight with cancer. This was posted on his Caring Bridge site:

Quote:
Paul Moved on to heaven at 5:35 pm, he went in peace
with lots of us by his side. We will follow with more details later, We are thinking a Tuesday Funeral .
Gods speed to Paul,
He will be deeply missed by all of us.
Patrick


Paul was a missionary at heart. I believe he is in heaven with Our Heavenly Father, who has welcomed a son home.

Thank you for your prayers. Eternal memory!

Fr. Deacon Daniel
