WAYLAND (WKZO) -- State Police don’t think foul play was involved, but they are investigating the death of retired Bishop Paul Donovan. His car was found in a retention pond off a service drive behind the Gun Lake Casino Thursday morning. The body of the 86 year old Catholic leader was found on the ground about 150 feet away. Vickie Cessna, Spokesperson for the Diocese of Kalamazoo says they think a combination of the Bishop’s health and the inclement weather resulted in his death. They took some comfort in the idea that he was found with his Rosary in his hand. Cessna says the Most Reverend Paul Donovan was the founding Bishop of the Kalamazoo Diocese, the longest serving Bishop and many of the programs he started continue today. She says visitation and a funeral mass is being planned for next week at St. Augustine Cathedral. Date and times have not yet been set. From http://wtvbam.com/
Mother Mary said at Fatima: "My Immaculate Heart will be your refuge and the sure way which will lead you to God." St. Thomas Aquinas said: "The things we love tell us who we are!" With that in mind, I will try to post each day something about Our Blessed Lady, items about the Holy Roman Catholic Church, and public domain Catholic books too! I pray you enjoy my ministry! Below are two albums of pictures that I created: 1. Our grand daughter Adrianna. 2. Tears of Mary!
