Thank you, FWM. The visitation was yesterday. They planned for it to last from 2PM until 7PM with a short service afterwards. People started showing up at 10AM and it didn't stop until about 7:30PM last night. Then the service to a packed church. Our pastor had been Irish and his family were very uplifting as they remembered our pastor (and their loved one). A sad ... but somehow joyful service as we believe he's in a wonderful place now with none of the trials of this life. The funeral service will be later this morning and, again, it's expected that the church will be filled to capacity with an overflow into our parish hall where closed circuit TV will allow them to witness and be a part of the service.
