Deacondeaconronstjudeparish.comI was born in 1937 and wedded to my beloved Carole in 1959. God has gifted us 9 children and numerous grandchildren & great grandchildren.
In 1959 – 1965 I also had the privilege to serve in the U. S. Army Special Forces – Airborne.
Since 1982, I have been a member of St. Jude Parish, along with my family. It is here that I was accepted into the Diaconate Formation. Bishop Charles Grahmann of Dallas ordained me in 1992.
After 45 years, I retired from a career in computer technology to more fully serve the People of God at St. Jude as Pastoral Care Minister. These past 18 years, in particular, have been the most transforming while witnessing and accompanying hundreds, thousands, of inspirational Faith Journeys as they tearfully picked up their crosses and followed Jesus Christ through their sufferings, trials, sorrows, & losses. How precious these Sacred Gifts for which I am humbly grateful to receive. I remain, along with all the clergy and staff of St. Jude, prayerfully, always prayerfully and faithfully accessible & approachable
