Remembering Bishop Edward Kimec:
Bishop Edward Kimec was an amazing shepherd. At Christ the King Seminary during our years of formation to become deacons, Bishop Kimec would make himself available to us. He would sit in the dining hall and all of us would ask questions for hours! Questions about almost anything, but mostly about the Church. His responses were always so kind, well thought, and usually humorous! They were never one- or two-word simple answers, but, rather lengthy ones. Somehow, from one simple question, he would know all the other smaller questions on our minds that were not yet spoken, and he would address them all. Most important, each of us could see his tremendous interest in us and the people to whom we would one day share in serving. To this day, I feel him present in every interaction I have with the people he shepherded so well.
God Bless you Bishop Kimec, may you rest in peace.
Deacon Dave
