of the different dioceses. My father died in 1991 and Father Donnelly, our pastor then, was an example for me of what I wished more Priests were like. My parents marriage was in the late 50s. He always said the pastor back then just wanted a free trip to Rome.

I don't blame you for not pursuing it. I will never forget Father Donnelly saying from the Pulpit at my Dad's funeral mass, "People are petty, God isn't."
