Fr. Michael Guglielmelli ("Father Mike") and his sister Dora were tragically killed in a car accident last night in Freehold, NJ. His other sister and niece were also injured and in need of everyone's prayers as they are still in the hospital.
It is very difficult to put into words what Fr. Mike meant to not only his parish of St. Francis but what he meant to those who knew him and came into contact with him. An old fashioned parish priest- Fr. Mike was from the neighborhood and was a vital and vibrant member of the community for his entire life. His homilies were living parables-- he would combine personal stories with Italian phrases, insights, and spiritual meaning. He was loved and he will be missed.
