The service, with Fr Carmelo attending, will be streamed live on Molthen-Bell's Facebook page (beginning at 10:30 am Wed. - https://www.facebook.com/molthenbell/?ref=page_internal). The video of the service will be posted for a few days afterward and can be accessed through either their Facebook page or their website https://www.molthenbell.com/ We are thankful for the opportunities to share memories and photos that this web site offers. In this time of pandemic it does allow a small recompense for the lack of a standard funeral
