Dear Friends:
D
uring this Easter Season the phrase “peace be with you” is often spoken by Jesus. It is
truly a joyful and blessed greeting. In that spirit I wish to express my deepest sympathy to
Monsignor Sivillo’s family. It was truly a peaceful experience meeting them and being with
them at the wake, the Mass of Transferral, the funeral Mass and at the cemetery. Our prayers
are truly with them. At this time I wish to also thank all our parishioners and friends for the
tremendous outpouring of your sympathy and prayers. In a special way I wish to thank the
staff of our parish especially Father Armato, Father Cezariusz, Deacon Bob, our altar servers
and Ronnie our custodian for their kindness and assistance. It was a joy and pleasure hosting
his funeral here. Monsignor was a good pastor who was loved by all. “Peace be with you.”
Yours in Christ,
Very Rev. Michael A. Carrano
