Turn 10 the Absent.
Mgr Mackin said in part.
"On the third day Of the golden jubilee
Of st. Aloysius' parish. we turn from the
festivities Of the living 10 our absent
brethren. The church makes mention Of
her departed children in her services and
ceremonies.
Il love to linger among the memories
Of the past and think Of what might
have been. and I like the old churches
where the memories Of the sainted dead
are cllnging to the arches. and where
every stone has its history. May God
keep their memory green in our hearts,
and may we follow in their footsteps
and reach at last the shining pathway
that leads to life eternal
