Rev. Michael Brizio September 28, 1947 - March 27, 2023
It is with great sadness that the parish family of St. Rose of Lima announces
the passing of Fr. Michael (Mike) Brizio.
He was one of a kind and we thank God for sending him to us.
"Well done, my good and faithful servant...Come; share your master's joy." (Matthew 25:21)
This was Fr. Mike's message to the people of the parish just a few days before his death:
"The doctors and nurses are doing their best. Thank you for your prayers and remembrances. I am praying for all of you and am grateful to you."
