Fr Noel was one of the five children in the Muscat family. I lived next door to this family while I was a student in Hamrun in Malta in the nineteen sixties. I received much hospitality from them all and spent many happy hours in their company. This friendship played a big part in leading me to the Catholic Church. Mark
