We

James Church, 200 South Finley Road Basking Ridge, NJ.
Tuesday morning at 10 am will be the funeral mass at the
same church, followed by services at the cemetery at
Holy Cross, also in Basking Ridge.
Please pass this information on as I am not certain I

outpouring of kindness has been tremendous. Dad was such
a gentle, soulful man.
