News came to us that on Wednesday morning 28th August our first parish priest and founder, Father John Francis Feeley died peacefully. He was ninety-five years old and had been a priest of the Diocese of Nottingham for fifty-eight years. He was still working as parish priest of Our Lady of Victories and St Alphonsus parish in Lutterworth until the day he died.
Many parishioners in Oadby remember Fr Feeley with great affection and gratitude and will be saddened by his death. May he rest in peace and receive the reward of his earthly labours in the heavenly kingdom.
His funeral arrangements are as follows: there will be a Vigil Mass in Our Lady of Victories and St Alphonsus, Lutterworth at 7pm on Thursday 12th September, and the Requiem Mass on Friday 13th September in the Church of our Lady of Victories, Market Harborough at 12 noon.
