Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York, released the following statement today after learning of the passing of Bishop emeritus Matthew Clark of the Diocese of Rochester, addressed to Bishop Salvatore R. Matano

Bishop Matthew H. Clark of Rochester, N.Y., has had to curtail his activities because of temporal arteritis, a painful but treatable inflammation of the arteries of the head, neck, upper body and arms.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan, Archbishop of New York, released the following statement today after learning of the passing of Bishop emeritus Matthew Clark of the Diocese of Rochester:

“My brother, Bishop Matano: 

            “To you, the priests, religious sisters and brothers, faithful Catholics, and wider community, my love, sympathy, and unity in prayer as I hear the somber news of the passing of Bishop-emeritus Matthew Clark. 

            “While, given the fragile state of his health these recent years, we realized that he would soon be going home, his death still leaves a void in our lives, as we have savored and counted upon his gentle, wise, holy presence for decades, myself since I met him in 1973. 

            “Like you, I praise God for his person, his vocation, his long life, and ask the Jesus he loved and served to embrace Matthew for all eternity.”
