Two Prominent Liturgical Composers Have Died

From multiple sources, including Pastor Peters at Pastoral Meanderings:

Richard Hillert and Richard Proulx have died in recent days. Hillert was better known in Lutheran circles, and Proulx (1937-2010) among Roman Catholics, but their works coexist in hymnals of both denominations and beyond. Here at Saint Boniface, we currently use Gather Comprehensive - Second Edition (GIA), and works of both composers are present in the hymnal. 

Hillert (1923-2010)    and    Proulx (1937-2010)

May they rest in peace.
