We are all shocked because we just saw Tomas at the Secular Meeitng two weeks ago.
Can you tell us anything? Peace and comfort to your whole family.

My husband Louie and I wish to express our deep sadness in the loss of our sweet friend, Tomas. He was a good and faithful servant of our Lord and our hearts also rejoice, knowing that he is now celebrating with HIM!.
Rosemarie LeClercq, OFS
I was greatly sorrowed with the news of Tomas’s passing. I had just seen him at our Regional Meeting on the 16th and he looked fine. Know that your family is in my prayers and the prayers of other Secular Franciscan around the U.S.
He will be greatly missed not only in his fraternity but in the many ministries that he was involved in.
Take heart in knowing that he is at peace and we will all see each other again.

I am so sorry for your loss. May the outpouring of sympathy, the kind acts of friends and strangers, as well as your memories give you comfort to help you endure the days ahead. The Bible also offers comfort. “For God is near to those broken at heart. “ Ps 34:17,18. Our Creator promises that there will soon be a time when “death will be no more.” Revelation 21:4.
