Peter Eckert Was Very- Widely

On March 19th, on the beautiful 1
feast of St. Joseph, the model and
patron of a happy death, it pleased
our Divine Lord to take unto Him- i
self the beloved soul of Peter Eckert,
It was just four weeks ago that he
was taken to St, Joseph's hospital, in
London, where he underwent a ser-
ies of operations which taxed his
heart and strength and from which
he never recovered.
Despite his great suffering and un-
told agony, those who attended him
never heard him murmur or utter -a
word of complaint. His great suffer-
ing was borne with true Christian 1
fortitude and patience and his resig-
nation
to the will of his Creator was
something to be' admired and imitat-
ed. There is nothing so strange about
all this for his whole life was spent
in living for his loved ones. If any-
one was in need of help or if some-
one were in trouble it was Peter
Eckert who was , one of the first to
offer his assistance. His whole life
was spent in sacrificing himself for '
others. His was a life of charity.
The untimely death of Peter Eck-
ert is a terrible blow not only to his
beloved wife and fancily but also to ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,„,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
