A NEWSLETTER FOR OUR LADY OF THE HILLS COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THEIR FAMILIES
MEETING DAYS ARE 2ND AND 4TH WEDNESDAYS

Next council meeting is on Wednesday, September 12 at 7:30 PM!

Dear reader reader:

As you may already be aware, Brother Dominick Rizzitano has been called home to the lord. His obituary is below, and I would like to add that Br. Dominick was one of the most generous people I know! He was instrumental in our council's ability to continue to help so many others, be it with the Art Auction, Special Sales, new fundraising ideas, etc. he was always there for our council and any of us that needed his help. He would literally give any of us the shirt off his back.

Please join us at the Higgins Funeral home for the "Knight of Columbus" memorial service tomorrow, Wednesday September 5, 2018 at 7 PM to pray that our dearly beloved brother's soul rest in peace, and to pay our respects to Marie and their family.

Vivat Jesu,
PGK Manny Cirne
Our Lady of the Hills, Council 5959

Brother Dominick Rizzitano with his love of 61 years, Marie
