Dear Mr. McGovern & family:
There are the loving families we have watched over the years on TV (e.g. Little House on the Prairie, The Brady Bunch, The Waltons), but to actually know of one here in real life is rare. I am lucky to say I can - The McGovern's.
Simply put they (Fr. Eddie, Mary Rose, Ann-Marie, my dearest friend Patricia & David) are all good, salt to the earth people who would not hesitate to help anyone in need. This is a credit to their beautiful parents (Inez & Bill) who raised them with solid morals, values & the teachings of Jesus.
May Inez continue to shine her eternal light on each of you & watch you from above with her Angel wings.
God Bless,
Love Judy Breau

Dear Mr. McGovern, Father Eddie, Mary Rose, Anne-Marie, Patricia and David,
Our condolences are extended to each of you and your families on the loss of your dear wife and Mom.
Mrs. McGovern was always smiling and engaging whenever we were in your home or met her elsewhere.
She was so proud of the six wonderful children she raised with her husband and enjoyed all her grandkids.
We value the strong friendships that have developed between members of our two families throughout the years and our hearts ache for you at this most difficult time.
You are in our thoughts and prayers. May you find comfort and solace in the many treasured memories you share of your beautiful wife and mother.
Love,
Debbie & Mike Maxwell

My Sympathy to Fr Eddie and his whole Family. I first met Fr Eddie in 1985 in Saint John when I was stationed at St Peters and later I moved to Windsor Ontario. So I never had the pleasure of meeting Fr Eddie's parents or siblings even though I grew up in St Peters Parish. With Prayers for the whole Family.

Mrs.McGovern to me was an angel, whenever you met her,she always had a kind word,and the conversation centered around your life,not hers. Mr. and Mrs.McGovern,were always together,you could tell they were meant to be,and raised the kindest and smartest kids at St.Peters. Mrs. McGovern was just a special lady. My deepest sympathy to Bill and family. Andrea Brown
