Reverend Bernard Bechard pastor of St. Antony's parish in Sheldon and also a parish in Franklin passed away at 1:30-2:00 this morning at Fletcher Allen.  Father Bechard was the uncle of Deanne Morin.

I will be posting Father Bechard's obituary as soon as I receive it.

I am so sorry to hear about this, Father Bechard was a very nice person.  Had he been ill?  I believe I saw him only 2 weeks ago.

Father Bechard will be missed by many!  He was a good example of a wonderful person.  I learned much from him in within the last two years about the latest websites - he never stopped learning or teaching.  He was a very giving individual and I will miss him.

Yes, Sue W Father Bechard has been sick - very sick for at least the last two weeks.  You must have seen him just before he got really sick.
