Dear Fr. Michael, fellow staff and parishioners of St. Peter’s,

It is with heartfelt sadness that I retire from my much-enjoyed ministry at St. Peter’s with you. I want to say goodbye and thank each one of you for the many days we have shared during my 8 year ministry. From the beginning, I have been touched by your personal generosity, friendship, dedication to prayer, support and cooperation for efforts made to expand and enrich the outreach to others in the parish and community. May God continue to bless you and your families and know that I hold each one of you in my daily thoughts and prayers as you have a special place in my heart.

– Sr. Gabriel Mary Riddle, cps
