On February 7, 2009, Daniel Hoare, father of Columban Father Frank Hoare, celebrated his 100th birthday. Fr. Frank celebrated the Mass and dedicated his homily to his father on the most unique and joyful birthday occasion.
After Mass, the group had lunch in a pub beside the church where the publican asked Mr. Hoare to have a photo taken as he pulled a pint. After pulling the pint, Mr. Hoare asked, "Anyone else for one?"
Congratulations to the entire Hoare family on the extraordinary gift of Daniel Hoare’s 100th birthday.
Fr. Frank Hoare currently is working in Myanmar where he has experienced a warm welcome from the people.
