In Loving Memory
Father Pat Lee
December 9, 1950 – April 24, 2025

With heavy hearts, we share the news of the passing of our beloved Pastor Emeritus, Father Pat Lee, who was called home to the Lord on April 14, 2025.
Father Pat faithfully served our parish community with unwavering devotion, gentle wisdom, and a deep love for Christ and His Church. His years of ministry at Our Lady of Mount Carmel touched countless lives—offering guidance, comfort and spiritual leadership to all who knew him.
Please join us in prayer for the repose of his soul and for all who mourn his loss.
Eternal Rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in eternal peace. Amen.
