Rosemary Gregory wrote a sympathy message

“Goodbye Father Ignatius. You left a footprint on my heart. I liked the nickname I gave to you. “Father Ignite Us”. We were so blessed to have your shepherding us as Pastorat St Joseph’s Chuech in Anderson, SC. Not enough words to describe the love and caring you gave us. May your soul rest in peace now. Heaven is your reward for a “job” well done. A soldier for Christ. Pray for us. Rosemary Gregory”
