Carol and I are doing well, in good health. She retired from All Saints last year but does a lot of substitute teaching, which works out well for both her and the school. I am working part time for McMackin Pharmacy, delivering prescriptions. Kim is teaching fourth grade in Lufkin and lives there. She is single. Nick and his wife, the Rev. Kellaura Johnson live in Houston. He works for Chevron and Kellaura is the Canon for Transition Ministry for the diocese. She will be helping St.Stephen's this year find a new priest. Jim Liberators has been our part time interim for almost the past two years. He comes from Pearland twice a week.
Jim, I can't believe that Carol just recently stepped away from All Saints' School. What a legacy! Kay retired in April after 48 years serving as an RN. I retired December 3 after 36 years in the ordained ministry and 12 years at Christ Church. I'm glad to have this writing gig. It keeps me busy and out of Kay's hair.
Our oldest son Clay is in Louisville and wife Sara and our only three grandchildren. Catherine Grace has been very ill for sometime and is on disability. She lives in San Antonio. John, Nick's favorite, lives in Germany in the Alps, but teaches in Austria. His wife, Aurora, teaches at a university in Germany. They are permanent residents in Germany. So far, John has worked in Brazil, Azerbaijan, Russia, and now Germany. He's never met an international airport he didn't like!
Jim, so great to hear from you. Thank you for reading my column and for spreading the word. Please share with others. Also, I would love to know how your family is doing. Your brother, Patrick+
A great piece, Patrick. I nibbled at it early this am, intending to move on with Morning Prayer, but instead I read and relished your every word. Thank you.
I’m really sorry to hear that about Grace
Thanks, Jim. It has been heart-wrenching and exhausting -- especially for her.

Do you still live in San Antonio?
I really enjoy your essays. I am letting others here in Beaumont know about them. Thank you for posting them.

That means a lot to me. Thanks for reading and commenting. I am hard at word on the next one...which keeps me out of Kay's hair!
