Father John E. Doyle KofC Council #9715
Proudly serving the parishes of St. Rose of Lima and Corpus Christi
On Saturday, April 13th, we gathered at the Father Doyle Social Hall for our annual awards night. Congratulations to all who were recognized for helping our council achieve its mission of service and charity to our parishes and the community.
We would like to collect pictures of the many parish members and their families who came out to say farewell to Father Al on Sunday, June 10th. If you have a picture you would like to share, please send it to Tom Ahart at tom.ahart@gmail.com

Brothers,
It is with great sadness that I send this email informing you all of the passing of Sir Knight James Thompson. Jim was a charter member of our Council and a long time member of the order. This past January Jim celebrated is 57th Anniversary with the Knights of Columbus. Jim became a fourth degree member of the order on May 1, 1989.
Please pray for the soul of our departed brother Jim, may his soul and the souls of all the faithfully departed rest in Peace Amen. Please also keep Jim’s wife Barbara and their family in your prayers during this difficult time.
I will send out additional details about the viewing and services as soon as I have more information.
Thanks,
Rick Ray
Grand Knight
