FR. RAFF'S OBITUARY

On Christmas Eve evening, Dec. 24, 2021, Rev. Brian Michael Rafferty, went home to the Lord.  Raff, as he was affectionately known by many, was surrounded by friends, love and prayers at the hour of his death.

Fr. Rafferty will long be remembered for his challenging homilies, his humor, wit, and wisdom.  He was a man of great compassion with a love for the poor and the marginalized.  He loved being a parish priest and found great meaning and purpose in pastoring Our Lady of the Chesapeake.  He was the founding pastor of the Church of the Resurrection in Ellicott City.
