A visit from some friends
My friends Lily and Jorge came by the parish this evening for the 6pm mass. The church was packed, so I only noticed them when it was almost over. They were the other two of the three friends who met me at the airport, so I was really delighted to see them again. And their generosity was proven once again, as we priests received a gift of… Krispy Kreme doughnuts! Mmmm… At any rate, we are planning to see one another again for dinner on Sunday. I look forward to it.

Yours was the only ordination ceremony I ever attended. I was there with my father Aubrey(“Steve”) Boyd. As I recall, you & he worked at a Gov’t Canada (income tax)job together. He admired you greatly – indeed, he loved you. I don’t know whether you’d remember him – it was a long time ago. Dad died in 1973, just a few months after he & my mother moved here to Vancouver, where I was living with my husband Ron. I’m glad to see that you are evidently thriving & busy.
