  It is with great sadness that we announce the death of  Michael George Holloway.

May God grant him eternal rest and may He comfort, strengthen and support his grieving family.

He built and organized the website for the parish and was a member of various choirs. Michael produced hundreds of photos and information for our parish's anniversary and fully supported all parish functions.

The parish is very grateful for his generous contributions to the life of our parish in all ways.

May he rest in peace.
