My favorite vegetable was named Father Alfonsus with the franciscan Friars of the Immaculata in New Bedford Massachusetts.
He was 90 plus years old and I had to spoon feed him, administer medication, and took care of all of his needs too, and wheel him where he needed to go, clean him up after he had an accident in his depends.
He was so humble that he wouldn't care that I call him a vegetable, all in fun. Just like I don't care if people call me a vegetable. ( A girl called me a potato once. )
But it was very interesting. He could not walk or do anything like have a conversation, but you could hear him pray.
Yet you would still hear him say, "God's will be done, Ave Maria, Saint Joseph, we must pray for each other, and help one another.". He would say those things every day over and over again.
I really miss him and I pray to him. I believe he will be looking out for me for the rest of my life. This isn't a very good picture of him . he did smile sometimes, but it's the only one I could find:
He's actually one of my favorite people I've ever met.
I love you and I miss you Padre, please pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death amen!
