A faithful friend is beyond price, no sum can balance his worth. Like all of us he was human. Moreover, everyone who has given up home, brothers or sisters, father or mother, wife or children, or property for my sake will receive many times as much and inherit everlasting life. For man it is impossible, but for God all things are possible. For as we live so shall we die.
Death seals personal choices made long before the end.
As we reflect on the words of St. Matthew's gospel and the quotation from Robert Louis Stevenson on his Memorial Card, I judge we have the essence of Father Neil Cahill. Good-bye, my friend. I know the Lord is with you and you are with the Lord.
