Monday memories – and some nostalgia…
Actually, it was Sunday February 13th 1972, beginning of the pre-Novitiate year: Peter Curry, Des Holm, John Mulrooney and Leo Wearden, They are still the largest group who have stayed as MSC in the history of the Pre-novitiate, 1969-1983.
The 1969 group has three who just celebrated Golden Jubilee of Profession: Claude Mostowik, Roger Purcell, John Kelliher. They equal the group from 1970, Golden Jubilee next year, Phil Reilly, Jac Boelen, Josef Senjuk.
One of our correspondents found the archive photo. There are two who did not stay, Don Violi and Terry de Luca, and Walter Puccetti who left, returned, taught at Daramalan and left.
Investigations cannot identify the Pre-Novitiate Director in the photo.
And our correspondent also noted that the responsibility all lies on Brian Gallagher who was Vocations Director in those years!!
