My friend and parishioner,
Pat Cangemi, had been killed in a terrible traffic accident on a Tuesday
evening near his home in Coweta County, Ga. On Thursday, at 5 p.m.,
in the Rose Room of Carmichael-Hemperley Funeral Home in Peachtree City,
I sat with his wife, Diane, a wonderful woman whom I have known for
over 15 years, as we prepared to meet with members of the family and
discuss the upcoming memorial service.
