writes from the Philippines:
I am sure I will not be the only one to offer
"corrections" .........and of course, I may be wrong....... (God
forbid)....... but I believe others have checked out while on the G.C. Was not
Fr. James Drought the VG when he crashed in a plane and died? Perhaps just a
Council member......????
When I was matriculating in Theology, Fr.
Gerard Grondin died, whilst on the Council. I think it went like this..... Pardy
was VG and elected Bishop in Korea, Jackie Donovan moved up to Vicar slot, and
Grondin was brought in to round out the Council. I do remember being in
the Rotunda during the wake, and SG Comber came in the door (from a three-month
visitation trip) and asked me "Who died?" I replied, Father
Grondin..... Comber was SG and didn't know one of his Council guys died.
Of course, if I am wrong on any of
this...it won't be the first time.
Cheers! Old Burr
