Our Chaplains over the years
Fr. Thomas J. Sullivan (later to become Msgr. Thomas J.
O'Sullivan) served faithfully as the council's Chaplain during the first year,
after which Fr. Charles
Harmon of St. Jerome parish was appointed Chaplain. Fr. Harmon
served as Chaplain for over four years.
After a year of searching for a new Chaplain to replace Fr.
Harmon, who had been reassigned to a new parish, on August
2, 1960, Fr. Clement Schneider, S.J., from Loyola
Marymount University accepted the office. His devotion to our
council would be demonstrated by his incomparable attendance
record during his 31 years of service. He faithfully
attended ninety percent of the hundreds of council meetings until
he passed away on All Saint's Day in 1991.
