Virgil Wiese obituary

Virgil Wiese

The St. Albert family is deeply saddened by the passing of Virgil Wiese.  Virgil was a very proud St. Albert Dad, Grandpa and supporter.  He and his wife, Elaine, generously endowed an educational scholarship at St. Albert in 2011. Joe was a devout Catholic and active member of St. Patrick's Parish and it's only fitting for a guy like Virgil and the members at St. Patrick's that his funeral would be one of the first major events at the new Parish. Please keep all the extended Wiese family in your prayers this week and please pray for the repose of Virgil's soul...

Eternal rest grant unto Virgil o' Lord: And let perpetual light shine upon him.

May Virgil rest in peace. Amen

May Virgil's soul and the soul's of all the faithfully departed through the mercy of God our Father rest in peace. Amen
