    I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. He was a wonderful person. Sometimes we would go over to help John out when he was misbehaving & your father would point us in the right direction & wish us luck. As a small child I use to like to drive down Brickyard Road to see the cows, especially the baby ones. The large garden will miss his loving hands because he could grow some wonderful veggies. RIP sir, we will see you again some day! Respectfully, Celeste Therrien-Fifield

    We have lost a wonderful man. Eddie was such a vital part of St. Stephen’s Church. He would get up right at that certain point to be prepared for the collections, standing off to the side, with that grin. I will miss having Eddie sit by my side each Sunday morning. We would always have a private chuckle during Mass of how much “prettier” my nails were than his. 🙂 He always was ready and willing to discuss garden techniques and the weather. He will truly be missed.
