PRINCE ALBERT — The Venerable Andrew Hoskin has officially retired but on any given Sunday he and his wife Mary Lou will be in an Anglican Church in the diocese, either attending a service or officiating at a Sunday Eucharist. Many of you will recognize him as the priest at a funeral you may have attended. The Hoskins are a wonderful gift to the diocese.
We met for a two-minute interview, which was really fun.
