Fr Sean Farrell
 | Raphaelites from Worcester will remember with great affection, Sean Farrell as he spent many happy days in Worcester. Sean's reduced family lived in his native Ireland and so whilst he was training and studying for the priesthood at the Birmingham Diocesan Seminary at Oscott he spent much of his free time with his adopted family at St George's. He was ordained at Worcester on 7th June 1997 and for a number of years joined us on our pilgrimage to Lourdes. (He was something of a preacher - those of you who were there when Archbishop Frank Carroll joined us will remember how the archbishop commented on how he was pleased to be the one who 'had the final word' after Sean had preached!!).
Fr Sean served as curate at St John Fisher, Coventry, as PP at St Joseph's, Banbury, at St Patrick's, Coventry, also at St Osburg's, Coventry and recently as chaplain at the Walsgrave Hospital, Coventry.
Fr Sean Farrell died on the 21st February 2008, aged 37. Whilst remembering Fr Sean in our prayers, please also remember his twin sister Mary and his brother, Paul.

Una Stables RIP
Kath Scahill received a letter today [2nd October 2008]and was very sad to hear about Una, who was a wonderful Handmaid and traveled many times with the Raphael Pilgrimage.
Una's son Andrew wrote:
The Raphael Pilgrimage Newsletter Issue 2 was recently received here. Sadly my mother passed away earlier this year after a battle with cancer. Her illness was diagnosed in June last year. Initially she seemed to respond well to chemotherapy treatment and we had hopes that surgery, which she underwent at the end of November, would hold the cancer at bay for a good deal longer. However, she became ill again shortly after Christmas and died peacefully on March 5th.
Our condolences to Andrew and the family.
