Father Ed, Karen, and All the Family,



My deepest sympathy!



I'll stop and say a prayer for your mom and dad on my next visit to my mom and dad and the many others Cronins at Saint Mary's.



God Bless them all!

Dear Father Cronin,

Although we have never had the pleasure of meeting your Mother, we feel as if we knew her from the many homilies you have given where you shared stories about your Mom and your siblings. We are most grateful to her for her gift of you as a son who has guided us spiritually for years. May her soul join the choir of Angels this Christmas and look upon all of us at St. Alexander's with a special blessing. Our deepest sympathy to you and all the members of the Cronin Clan.

Dear Isabell...

I have heard wonderful stories of you for many years. The love of your family and friends and all those you ministered to as a Vincentian will keep you alive in their hearts until you all meet once again in God's heavenly kingdom.
