James O'Connor (Deceased)

July 1987 to June 1988

James O'Connor took over the reins of leadership in July 1987. His leadership was immediately seen when we formed and published the first council newsletter on a monthly basis. A group of Knights began visiting King James Nursing Home twice a month, making crafts and talking with patients on an individual basis. The Baptismal Rose Program began with Bob Dombrowski Cleaning VCRs to provide funds for this worthwhile· project. The Women's Auxiliary was established on September 8, 1987 with Anne Delloust serving as its first President. The council's first 50*s dance was held and was a big success with the help of Kermit Getz. With Jim's influence, sixteen Knights and some of their spouses were initiated as Eucharistic Ministers at our parish.
