Love you great grandpa

Just celebrated the Sacrifice of the Mass of Jesus’ Death and Resurrection in memory of you, my grandfather and your courageous wife and widow, Margaret, my grandmother!
We never met you but she over those almost 50 years after your dying in the line of duty, planted your memory in my heart. I have your and her picture in my room. All your grandchildren and great grandchildren keep you alive in our hearts!
I am a priest of 56 years and have been a Police Chaplain since 1967 and am the Chaplain of the Verona (NJ) Police Department since 1994 which is my greatest honor and blessing. They are the FINEST of the Finest, as you are, Pop. Ask St Michael our Heavenly Patron to continue to bless, sustain and intercede for Police Personnel and their loved ones and most importantly the people they choose to protect and serve!
Enjoy the Eternal “CHOIR PRACTICE!”

To fully appreciate the heroes of the present, we must recognize our heroes of the past. Your heroism and service is honored today, the 86th anniversary year of your death. I am priviliged to be among the first to leave a tribute to you. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service.

Rest in peace Brother Mike..your legacy lived on with the Hanlys, and the McNish's. I saw my Mom's school mate Jim Smith's EOW in front of our house on Mill St. in 1950 when I was a kid. I hope the two of you will open your arms to Ken Santucci and help him on the other side.
