Out of an abundance of caution and concern, the family of Deacon Jim Moss has decided to postpone his funeral until sometime in February. There was concern about travel for all. As soon as a new date and time is available, our Diocese will share the announcement. Please continue to keep Deacon Jim’s family in your many prayers during this difficult time. Stay safe and warm!
It is with great sadness that Bishop David P. Talley and our Diocese share the passing of Deacon James “Jim” Taylor Moss, Sr.
Deacon Jim entered eternal life this past Thursday, January 22. He was ordained on April 19, 2008. Deacon Jim served the entirety of his diaconal ministry at our St. Mary Catholic Church in Jackson, Tenn., and helped serve at our St. Andrew the Apostle Catholic Church in Lexington, Tenn.
Please join us in praying for the repose of Deacon Jim’s soul and pray for the peace and strength of all his family and friends that are suffering through his loss. May God grant him eternal rest.
