"It's a beautiful day!"

Father Joseph Nolan

About the Quote of the Week

My Uncle, The Reverend Joseph M. Nolan, passed into his heavenly reward on August 31st. This past Thursday and Friday the Nolan Family and friends along with many parishioners from Sacred Heart Church (where he served as Pastor from 1976 -1997) celebrated my Uncle Joe's life with two beautiful Mass services.  In talking with parishioners about my Uncle, two themes emerged. They attributed his leadership and guidance in saving the Church for which they were very grateful. Also the tone he set with the term, "It's a Beautiful Day!" It's a simple phrase that he used not only to begin his inspiring homilies but also as a catchphrase to remind the congregation, family, and friends that there is always something to be grateful for. 
  "It was a Beautiful Life."  

Rest in Peace Uncle Joe

Wishing you a most beautiful day wherever this may find you!
