Education

I went to St. Francis Seminary High School in Victoria, KS.  For college, I received by B.A. degree in Philosophy from  St. Mary's College in St. Mary, KY.  I attended Kenrick Seminary in St. Louis finishing with a Masters of Divinity degree followed by ordination in my home parish of New Almelo, KS, in 1975.  In my 48 years as a priest, I have been with parishes strongly associated with a Catholic School in 40 of these years.  

Hobbies

I have always believed in education.  My dad always regretted that he did not have enough money for college, but he did well as a rancher.  But, he along with my mother, planted that seed.  I enjoy reading theology, detective novels, historical fiction, and classical literature.  I also enjoy art shows, theatre, and some traveling.  I have six siblings who also enjoy much the same.....well maybe not as much theology!

Other Information

I surprised myself by adopting a pet, a dog who is a cross between a schnauzer and a terrier.  Her name is Dodie, and she gets me out walking at least 4 times a day.  She met my requirements:  small, no shedding, and liking people.  I was blessed...and hopefully she was as well!
