Please keep this tooth until I return. Father Phillip O'Malley, an ordained priest attached to the diocese of BishopLowery, is believed to have been buried by an avalanche while hiking alone near Mt. Diablo last week. Due to his involvement in personal retreat work, no one has known the exact whereabouts of father O'Malley for several days, but the priest was an ardent hiker and had been observed in the vicinity of Mt. Diablo shortly before the avalanche struck. An area wide search for Father O'Malley has recently been called off and his death has been assumed since no communication has been received from him since prior to the accident over a week ago. The body has not yet been recovered.
Funeral arrangements are pending.
Thanks to Bernd Ho lzer who saw the show live on its second night, for sending me these notes.
