Mons Hackett was parish priest of St John the Baptist in Parnell, and guided my family through christenings, weddings and funerals.
Mass was started "on the dot".
I appreciated his clear, concise sermons and advice. Requiesat in pace Mons Hackett.

Mons Kevin was our parish priest at East Coast Bays and was a good friend to our family.

My mother Margaret Bonner (deceased) was parish secretary for several years so the bonds were strong.

Mons Kevin will be missed by many and especially by those of us lucky enough to call him "friend".

Thank you Mons Kevin and may you rest in peace.
