Fr. Ed Retirement Celebration
Fr. Ed celebrated his last mass as pastor on January 31. After each mass that day, there was a retirement celebration at the Parish Center. He received an honorary doctorate in humane letters from St. Francis College earlier this month. Fr. Ed will still be resident at St. Charles, so we hope to have him share many more years with us.
