WELCOME to this blog for the JOSS Class of 1968. This blog is for us, members of this class. It celebrates all of us, all that we are individually and as a group, and honors those who have died. Each one of us is uniquely graced and gifted.

Most of us first came together in 1956 at a little-known place in Central Ohio. Others arrived later. Whether we left the Josephinum before ordination or were ordained in 1968, we all followed uniquely individual calls.

We have journeyed through significant historical times - "Camelot", Vatican II, the Vietnam War, exploration of space, the civil rights movement, advances in communication technology, sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, growth in and loss of relationships, terrorism, medical/surgical breakthroughs, "Arab Spring", and much more.

The vision for this blog is to connect anew, share our stories, support one another.

Greetings! Jump on board! Peace and Shalom!

Tom Devereaux on the Mend

Last week Fr. Tom emailed Fr. Dan to inform him that, when he was in Washington, DC, June 22-26, he "incurred a detached retina."  He further reported that he underwent successful surgery on his right eye on June 27 and that he "still cannot see out of that eye until the gas bubble inside the eye dissipates."  Fr. Tom expressed his disappointment that he will be unable to attend our class reunion in Dallas.  However, he subsequently added that, if he heals more quickly than the doctors anticipate, he will attempt to attend.  He closed by saying, "It is wait and see (pun ha ha)."
