I just learned that Bishop Matthew Clark, bishop of the diocese of Rochester (my home diocese) between 1979 & 2012, has passed away. I met him on a couple of occasions; he always struck me as a kind-hearted man & a good pastor. Pictured here are my older brother Chas (right) & younger brother Marty (middle) & me (left) with Bishop Clark, at Marty’s confirmation in May 2003. Requiescat in pace.
