Abbot David Geraets, O.S.B.
May you rest in peace.
March 4,1935-March 2, 2012
We are sharing with you some very sad news today, Our Beloved, Abbot David has quite unexpectedly passed away on Friday, March 2, 2012. It was discovered just before our Reunion Retreat that Abbot David had an injury from a previous fall that required serious surgery. Despite doing well in the beginning, he was not able to recover and went home with the Lord at 6:50 am. I was blessed to be with him in those precious moments. We are obviously sad and in great grief. Abbot David is friend, mentor, teacher, spritiual director to so many of us. We are also continuing in the spirit and with the vision of Abbot David our School for Spiritual Directors program. Be assured he will be a source of promise, prayers and hope in our continuing the good work he began!
