Dr. John Driscoll was a “splendid Catholic man who fulfilled his obligation to God and the Church through his actions in marriage and family, in his profession and in his community. He was an enormous presence and help to St. Joseph Parish and School through all his years here: the epitome of a giving Catholic believer, who placed his many talents at the Lord’s service.” His life blessed us all. RIP. Please click HERE for a lovely tribute from our bulletin.
