FAREWELL

Our pastor, Rev. FIR. Thos. Luby, has
been called by the Holy Sec to larger
and better parish-that of Mt. Clemens.
Under him are two assistants, where
as he conducted our parish and that at
Birch Run alone. Two beautiful
churches, one here and one there, are
to stand for years to come as mile
stones of the good work done by Rev.
FIR. Luby. Likewise, in our memories
will remain the thoughts of the true
love and assistance given US by our
friend and consider. He leaves us, we
the people whom he has taught the A
C's of his faith; he leaves us, his
people, under the care of another priest,
one who cannot love us, cannot under
stand and know us as he does.
We can look expectantly for another
FIR. Luby, but he can never come.
There is only one FIR. Luby and he has
gone from us; gone but not forever.
We know and believe that true love is
lasting love and that Rev. FIR. Luby
will teach us again as he has taught US
during the past eighteen years.
FIR Luby is missed, not only from his
parish, but by all the citizens of Mt.
Morris, Birch Run and in the nearby
country. He has been active in all
civil affairs and has been a force in
bringing Mt. Morris from little vii
lage to its present status, of which we
are justly proud.
