Dinner with the Lost Boys
of St. Thomas

26 July 2007

 

Some of the seminarians and faculty from the old St. Thomas Seminary in Louisville have set up the Lost Boys of St. Thomas Seminary as a mailing list on the Internet, and a good number of the guys communicate there regularly. Occasionally they have a chance to meet together, and today a group gathered for dinner at Mark's Feed Store while Charlie Dittmeier was in town. Fr. Bob Gray, one of the seminary teachers, was a special guest.

Joe Griffey quizzing Fr. Gray
Joe Griffey has been compiling a list of all the seminarians and faculty members, grouped by classes, those ordained and not ordained, etc. A problem area has been the length of time the various faculty members were at St. Thomas and here Joe is querying Fr. Gray about his recollections of the faculty terms.
