R.i.p. Fr. Andrew Wahmhoff, O.s.b.

[Fr. Antony Maria OSB]

Please pray for Fr. Andrew Wahmhoff, who died yesterday (Good Friday). I don't know all of the details beyond he was in his 80's, had a blood disease, and had been deteriorating for the past two years. He was my high-school latin teacher for the two years that I took latin, and he was an amazing, holy man, completely devoted to his students and his work, and most importantly to God. Then also please pray for Fr. Bede. He and Fr. Andrew were really close, and when Fr. Andrew started doing worse Fr. Bede started doing worse. To add more strain to it, Fr. Bede is 92 and had a stroke last May and has really slowed down since the stroke, so now with one of his good friends dying I am concerned about how he is going to do. And I know this is completely selfish, but if you could please pray for me, as well. Being away at college 17 hours away, I can't make it to the funeral, which is Wednesday, so please pray that I can get through this time, as well. Thank you very much.

May God bless and protect you always in all of your endeavors.

Your Brother in Christ,

Joe
