Fr. Don Bosco, OFM Cap. passed into eternal rest on Sunday, September 1.

Father Don Bosco ministered as a Vicar/Parochial Assistant at St. Pius X, Middletown, CT [1987-1993]. After retiring, he requested to return to St. Pius X, Middletown, CT, and as a senior friar, offered parochial assistance [2010-2014], novice director and supply ministry [2014-2019]. His challenging health issues led him to consider residing at St. Clare Friary [2019], our senior friar fraternity in Yonkers, NY, where he happily remained with his brothers until his death.

There was a Memorial Mass at St. Pius on Saturday, September 28 at 9am. Light refreshments were served afterwards in the Bill Fortin Memorial Hall:
