Alphonsus Augustine Sowada RIIP: 333 and a Cryptic Flying Sow

The Deaths in 2014 site lists under January 11:
Alphonsus Augustus Sowada, 80, American-born Indonesian Roman Catholic prelate, Bishop of Agats (1969–2001)
His surname is an addition to the "Pig/Hog/Ham/Sow/Pork/Fat...." pattern-cluster that's been prevalent over the past couple of weeks.  There is a strong likelihood that the death of Sowada was "timely" ... as in it was influenced by his inner twin and/or the inner twin world as part of their "coming out " and "communication" to us, and at this precise point in time. Note the following from Sowada's wiki page:
Alphonsus Augustine Sowada (June 23, 1933 – January 11, 2014) was a Roman Catholic bishop.
Born in Avon, MinnesotaUnited States, Sowada was ordained to the priesthood for the Canon Regulars of the Order of the Holy Cross on May 31, 1958. On May 29, 1969, he was appointed bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of AgatsIndonesia and was ordained on November 29, 1969. He resigned on May 9, 2001.[1][2]
Note the following regarding the date that he was ordained as Bishop:
November 29 - is the 333rd day of the year (334th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. here are 32 days remaining until the end of the year. 
Since 1969 was not a leap year,  he was ordained on the 333 rd day of the year, hence an addition to the "333/Identical Number Sequence" pattern-cluster... a particularly prominent cluster over the last couple of weeks.

There is one more thing, the name Sowada is also an addition to the "Cryptic Phrases in Names" pattern-cluster, given the following etymology:
Ada Look up Ada at Dictionary.comfem. proper name, from Hebrew Adha, literally "ornament."
sow (v.) Look up sow at Dictionary.comOld English sawan "to scatter seed upon the ground or plant it in the earth, disseminate" (class VII strong verb; past tense seow, past participle sawen), from Proto-Germanic *sean (cf. Old Norse sa, Old Saxon saian, Middle Dutch sayen, Dutch zaaien, Old High German sawen, German säen, Gothic saian), from PIE root *se- (1) "to sow" (cf. Latin sero, past tense sevi, past participle satum "to sow;" Old Church Slavonic sejosejati; Lithuanian sejuseti "to sow"), source of semenseason (n.), seed (n.), etc. Figurative sense was in Old English.
sow (n.) Look up sow at Dictionary.comOld English sugusu "female of the swine," from Proto-Germanic *su- (cf. Old Saxon, Old High German su, German Sau, Dutch zeug, Old Norse syr), from PIE root *su- (cf. Sanskrit sukarah "wild boar, swine;" Avestan hu "wild boar;" Greek hys "swine;" Latin sus "swine," swinus "pertaining to swine;" Old Church Slavonic svinija "swine;" Lettish sivens "young pig;" Welsh hucc, Irish suig "swine; Old Irish socc "snout, plowshare"), possibly imitative of pig noise, a notion reinforced by the fact that Sanskrit sukharah means "maker of (the sound) 'su.' " Related to swine. As a term of abuse for a woman, attested from c.1500. Sow-bug "hog louse" is from 1750.
Speaking of "pig ornament", in my pewter design business, I once designed the 12 Days of Christmas, and the third one which represents the "three French Hens", many people see as a "Flying Pig"
 Okay, so here it is at right... do you see a flying pig in the third one?

One question that I would like to have answered, is why did Sowada resign?!
