A Story from the Heart
It is with a heavy heart that we bring you news of Mary Anyak's passing. She was the African American woman that use to sit at the front right pew as you face the altar. She had had a lot of health issues and struggles this past year. She lived at Jackson Tower. She called us her Catholic family. She would always say tell momma and Kevin Hi! Tell pastor I have been sick. She was very proud of her church. Her dad was Catholic and named her Mary. She was a track star in high school in Sudan. Her family wants to bring her body back to Sudan. Please pray the repose of the soul of Mary Anyak. When you volunteer once a month you get to know the neighbors in the St. Peter neighborhood on a first name basis.
