Dear readers,This past Sunday morning my father (on the right) passed away after a long bout with Alzheimer’s. It was a long and difficult journey but our belief in Jesus Christ and His resurrection gives us much assurance. If you have a moment say a prayer for the repose of William's soul.
Funeral arrangements will not be made until later today but we do know the calling hours will not be until Wednesday with Mass on Thursday. More news to follow for those who may be interested (please do not feel obligated) when we know.
As a further consequence, of course, Adam’s Ale will be short on posts for a spell. Thank you for your understanding and prayers.
May God bless you,
Fr. Valencheck

Many prayers for you and your family
May your dear father's soul rest in peace in God's eternal light and eternal life.
May our Lord grant you and your family comfort, peace, and sustenance during your time of loss and mourning.
via Sam Coleridge--
Ere sin could blight or sorrow fade,
Death came with friendly care;
The opening bud to heaven conveyed,
And bade it blossom there.
We'll count on that, via prayer and via your thumb of blessing on him.
Oh, I'm so sorry (((Fr. V))) He was a wondrous good son, and a marvelous dad, I am sure. Next time you two meet, you will embrace in utter joy.
I'll be praying for all the Valenchecks, too.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace.
Praying for you and your father, Fr. Valenchek.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your father.
My condolences for your loss, Fr. V.
You have my prayers. My grandfather - born in 1917 - is at the very last stage and we have been taking shifts with him while we expect him to pass in the next day or two.
You are both in our prayers, please offer a prayer if you can for Joseph my grandfather.
My deepest sympathy Father. I will remember him in my prayers this week, along with you and your family.
