Fr pascal baptised me in the Ermelo Catholic Church in November 1953.He was a wonderful man and priest.always with his pipe nearby and always with a deep devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary.Fr Pascal started a Rosary Chain many years ago,in which we all undertook to say a daily rosary for the intentions of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.I am still saying my daily rosary to this day.Another subject close to his heart was the unification of the different Franciscan orders at that time and the Ermelo area becoming a diocese.he was very zealous in the upliftment of the poor and destitute,,,,and he loved building new churches.rest in peace bishop ROWLAND.You have earned your reward.your friend Dr Stephen Edward Saad
