Early yesterday morning (the 28th), my friend -- and artist! -- Tom Schimp passed away.
He received the Holy Viaticum as well as the Apostolic Blessing!
What a holy way to die! May we all be so fortunate!
He now joins his wife, Vickie, who passed away several years ago...
Tom was a talented artist in his own right, in fact, he made this painting for me knowing that I was a Vietnam veteran...

Mr. Tom suffered much toward the end of his life on earth but wearing the Brown Scapular and having received our Lord the night before his death, I think we can be confident that he will enter the Heavenly Beatitude in short order!
R.I.P., Tom...
Please pray for Tom... And for strength and honor!
Viva Christo Rey! Bl. Fr. Miguel Pro, Fr. Emil Kapaun and Fr. Vincent Capodanno, pray for us...
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle...
