Bishop John M.D'Arcy

Today, we will have the funeral Mass for Bishop John Michael D'Arcy, Bishop Emeritus of our diocese, Fort   Wayne-South Bend. Because of Bishop D'Arcy, I was able to answer the call to the diaconate, and I was also able to be called to work as his Director of the Office of Catechesis.  In this area, he was one of two mentors and I will miss his presence.  I will miss the times we would meet in his office, I will miss his friendship and his teaching.  However, I know he will continue to support all of us in his new life with the Lord,  May he rest in peace.  Here's a link to his NY Times obit.
