COUNCIL #802 - MSGR.JOHN J. BURNS REMEMBERS
FR PATRICK R SMITH

Fr. Pat has been a member of our council since 1978. He was a late bloomer to the priesthood, mainly because he made sure that his aging parents were taken care of before committing to become a priest. After their deaths, Fr. Pat took the vow of priesthood and has served our diocese well for a number of years. He died on Saturday, August 29th. He recently retired due to health problems. He had been residing at St. Catherine's Village in Madison since his retirement.


May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen
