It is with the deepest regret that we must announce the passing of one our faithful and well loved choir member,
Salvatore J. Montesano
August 28, 2011
Sal was a faithful and dedicated chorister at all times, and was loved so very much by our choir and parish. He had a wonderful resonant bass voice that was able to sing the lowest notes that no one else could. A man with a noble spirit and a gentle soul, we loved him very much, and will miss him so very, very deeply.
Our thoughts and prayers go to his wife Gloria, and the entire family.
