Hi Hin Shing, 

Visited Fr Farren in his nursing home in Dublin. Talked to him for about an hour. He was fine and alert apart from a broken right arm.

He received our 61-grad get-well card and also our 50 years’ anniversary photo with names. Using the photos he was asking me names. Specifically, he remembered of course you, Martin Li ,Martin Lee, Albert Lam and Stephen Lam.

He remembered how Fr Reid and Francis Kong died and also the fact that he hired him. 

The first picture is myself and Fr Farren. The second one is myself, Fr Farren and Fr. Terry.  Fr Terry was our church’s summer months relief priest for over 10 years. He took me to see Fr Farren.

The third picture was a 1939 ordained group picture. See whether you can spot Fr Kennedy . They were normally sent out two years after they were ordained. I went through quite a few of these group pictures and had been able to spot most of fathers who taught us. The reason is because that was what they looked like when they taught us. (Click the image to view the photos.)

Regards,
Micheal
