It was my great good fortune to have known Father Bayer as the Pastor of St. Bridget's of Kildare Church for over 30 years. He was a kind, compassionate, and gentle man, as well as a gentleman. Mild, good humored and good natured, he handled his duties in a reasonable fashion. Responsible, reliable, dependable, loyal are among the many adjectives applicable to him. He was a shepherd to his flock, and a guide and sponsor in the administration of his sacerdotal functions, as well as running the parish. We were fortunate to have had him as a part of our lives.

Well done good and faithful serve t of God.
My family has fond memories of our days at St. Bridget. Father Bayer was a kind, caring spiritual Father to all of us.
He never uttered an unkind word about anyone. He was a perfect example of Pope Francis mandate of working among the faithful and accepting the smell of his sheep

So sorry to hear of Fr. Bayer´s passing. My mom always said he was a great comfort to her when my father died, and she got to know his mother through St. Bridget´s Senior Club. He officiated at my wedding and I will always remember him for his gentleness and kindness. My deepest sympathy to his family.
