Just
heard this afternoon of the passing of Br. Anthony Furniss in Miguel House. We
heard last week end that he was quite weak and then on Tuesday night he
went unconscious and passed away so peacefully next day - just as he had
wished or indeed planned.
Br.
Anthony had a long and happy mission in St. Brendan's, Dwars River and indeed
he always asked about it whenever I visited him in the Nursing Home
- both of us left there end 2011 See below Death notice from R I P. ie No
Brothers expected to travel due to an alarming rise in covid cases all
over the country.
God Bless
- Keep Safe .
