In memoriam : P.J. McGuire

P.J. McGuire

Fr. Paul (“PJ”) McGuire died of a stroke on February 22. He was a well-known member of the U.S.A. province for us.  On a regular basis we would receive booklets with his latest research on Fr. Dehon. They provided a fresh and welcome interpretation of the life and spirituality of our Founder.  P.J. McGuire was no stranger to Canada. in the 1990s he guided the Anglo-Canadian province in a retreat. But he also did so for other regions and districts in the Congregation.  We are deeply grateful for all his work for the Dehon Study Center of the US Province.  The funeral is in Hales Corners on February 29. The Regional Superior will represent the Canadian Region.
