Farewell to Father Markey

Yesterday Father Markey said his final Masses as pastor of St. Mary Church, Norwalk. He is stepping down to study for an advanced degree in philosophy. Our pictures show his final 9:30 Solemn High Mass with the Knights of Columbus in attendance. Stephen Genovese was deacon and Bill Riccio, subdeacon.
In the afternoon, parishioners flocked to a reception in the church hall to say good-bye to Father Markey and receive his blessing. The line snaked around the hall.
