So Long, Joe!

Please pray for the repose of the soul of Father Joseph Pawlowski who passed away this morning.  Funeral arrangements have not yet been announced.

Fr. Pawlowski was the associate pastor at St. Mary’s in Griffith when I was in seminary.  He and Msgr. Zollinger worked really well together and formed a lifelong friendship.  He preached the homily at Msgr. Zollinger’s funeral several years ago.

Fr. Pawlowski always had a unique way of explaining things that often had us rolling in laughter.  I shall miss him greatly.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let your perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
