Paul & Marguerite Benedetto left a message on January 11, 2026:
Dearest Ann, Marguerite and I are praying for you, and Bob - as well as all of the St. Hugh's Family. It is hard to think of anyone in our lives who have had such dedicated friends as the two of you. Bob spent so many hours over the years explaining the need to fight for the difficult position we Catholics find ourselves in. The dedication that you and Bob have had to our prayer requests, the hundreds upon hundreds of Rosaries, said on behalf of our intentions can never be repaid, but we return your faithful Christian love with ours! We have missed you both very much! I look forward to being at the Mass tomorrow for our dear Bob! With affection, prayers and love, Paul & Marguerite
