I feel sad. I was just talking to a priest friend a while ago and he said that one of their fellow priests died yesterday because of cardiac arrest. He was only 55 years old.
I remember those days when they were together in our Parish and they also used to preside mass here in our subdivision. I remember the meaningful and uplifting homilies they used to share with us parishioners.
What they say is true. death comes like a theft in the night. One would never really know when the time comes. It is all in God’s hands.
This keeps playing in my mind. Would you prefer a sudden death over a prolonged illness?
Rest in peace Fr. Larry!
