A Tribute to Papa, Alphonsus Ward
With heavy hearts, I remember and celebrate the life of Alphonsus Ward, whom I fondly called Papa. A dear friend and a man of unwavering faith. Alphonsus was a beacon of kindness, love, and warmth. His gentle spirit, ever-present smile, and compassionate heart touched the lives of everyone he met.
A devoted husband, a loving father to his five children, a proud grandfather, and a cherished friend, Papa lived his life with grace and humility. His faith in God was steadfast, guiding him through life’s journey with strength and peace. On March 12, 2025, he passed away peacefully in the hospital, leaving behind a legacy of love and faith that will never fade.
Though he is no longer with us in body, his spirit lives on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. We take comfort in knowing that he now rests in the loving arms of his Savior.
Rest in peace, Papa. You will be dearly missed, but never forgotten by me.
