Rest in peace, Fr. Julius
A few weeks ago we noted the passing of Fr. Tom of Blue Cloud Abbey. Today was the funeral of another dear monk, Father Julius Armbruster.My favorite memories of him are the talks we had outside of the Abbey while he was having a smoke -- he had many stories to tell about being one of the monks who built the Abbey. I also remember him whipping down the hallways in apparent total disregard of any impediments in his way. To me he was a very important part of the mosaic that is Blue Cloud.
You can read more about him on the Blue Cloud Abbey web site.
This picture of Fr. Julius was taken at the same time when Fr. Tom was blessing the bikers -- see my September 22 post.
