Father was a close friend of Father Gruner. Seems God is calling many of the good priests home which is likely to mean trying times for the rest of us that are still "here".

I recently received a book written by Father.
May he RIP.

I PRAY FOR THE REPOSE OF HIS SOUL.

I wonder if Vennari or Matt will appeal to their readers to pray for the repose of his soul. Or, perhaps they'll completely ignore his passing like they did Fr. Wathen.

Fr. Trinchard was a great priest and a great author.

Among other trad priests I have known, and when I have asked them if they have read Fr. T's books, the only reason I have heard for NOT reading them is that his use of large type, bold font and italics makes the text difficult to understand. I have not experienced this problem, and I can't help but think that they're using it as an excuse to not be bothered with his books. They don't know what they're missing!

It was Fr. Trinchard who explained to me the only believable rendition of HOW the Revolutionists managed to get rid of the Oath Against Modernism in the seminaries.

When I asked him about Latin, expecting him to reply that he loves the language, he honestly told me that he had no preference for it on a personal level, and in seminary he wanted nothing to do with it, because his professors told the classes that they had to learn this Latin stuff, but that they would never need to use it in practice. That was during Vat.II and 5 years before the vernacularization of the Novus Ordo, but the revolutionaries knew in advance full well what was coming down the pike. So before his ordination, he was forced to devote a lot of time and effort toward learning Latin even though A) he didn't like it, and B) he was told he would never need it, but he had to learn it nonetheless.

Well, that turned out to be a lie, because once he went Traditional, every Mass he said was in Latin, and he started to read old Church docuмents which didn't have any English translation available. So he ended up NEEDING that which his professors had incorrectly told him he would NOT need. His knowledge of Latin no doubt helped him in the long run more than he was willing to admit.

Fr. Trinchard spent a few years as a professional engineer before he felt the calling to the priesthood, so he had a sound background in the industrial world and knowledge of how things work before his seminary, which could only have been helpful to his world view. It was apparently, however, insufficient for him to recognize the revolution in progress as it took place. This is a fact of reality that is perhaps very important for anyone in the future who would like to explore the way this tremendous apostasy could ever have taken place from the start.

May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
