It is with great sadness that I bring the news that our dear friend and board member has passed away. Father Peter Damian Massengill passed away at hospice on Saturday, June 14, 2025 at 10:20 pm. He was 76. Father has been a member of our group since April, 2018. Father PD was a soft-spoken, quiet, and kind man. He had a great sense of humor and was very loyal to our board and our group. He will truly be missed.
