WelCom February 2024
10 December 1933 – 3 January 2024 – Rest in Peace
Monsignor Charles Harold Pascal, a much loved and respected priest of the Archdiocese of Wellington, died on 3 January 2024, aged 90, peacefully at Vincentian Home, Berhampore, Wellington. Charles had been recently diagnosed with terminal cancer but died more quickly was expected.
Monsignor Charles was the loved son of the late Harold and Noelle and late brothers Michael, John and Arthur (Bill).
A Vigil Mass was held at San Antonio Church, Eastbourne, on the evening of 8 January, where Monsignor Charles had served and lived for many years.
Charles’ Requiem Mass was held at Sacred Heart Church, Petone, on 9 January, followed by a private cremation.
A tribute to Monsignor Charles and his many contributions, particularly in the field of Church music, will be published in next month’s WelCom.
Requiescat in Pace.
