"We give thanks to God in a very special way this morning for a priest, a bishop, a friend and steward," said Bp. Robert Morneau at the Mass of Christian Burial for Bp. Aloysius Wycislo, Saturday, Oct. 15 at St. Francis Xavier Cathedral in Green Bay.
Bp. Wycislo, 97, died Tuesday, Oct. 11 at St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay.
Bp. Morneau opened his homily with condolences to the Wycislo family before injecting humor into the celebration.
"I was beginning to think, in the last several years as bishop (Wycislo) aged, that those Wycislo genes were going to bury Bp. (David) Zubik, myself and surely Bp. (Robert) Banks," he said. Full story ...
