Please remember in your prayers Father William Finch, Pastor of St. Raphael's parish in Rockville, Md.

Just after he finished serving the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Thursday evening, Father Finch suffered a heart attack in the Church and could not be revived.

Eternal Memory.

Man, if it's your time, that's a great last thing to be doing...

Father Finch, may we all meet you in Paradise one day...

Memory eternal!

Eternal Memory! I echo Bizantinodico, what a blessed way to go. Let Perpetual Light shine upon Him!

I understand the good father was only 55 [dailymail.com], which is much too young to die.

Still, what better time and place for a priest to draw his last breath?

May he rest in peace!

Memory eternal to the Lord's servant, the Priest William, who reposed in God's House after serving Him and celebrates now before the Holy Throne
