Farewell to Father Treacy

On June 25th St. Thomas More Parish said farewell to Father William Treacy as he moved on to live full time at Camp Brotherhood. Ordained a Catholic Priest in 1943 in Ireland Fr. Treacy answered the call for volunteers to minister to the many people who had moved to the United States from Ireland during World War II. Despite intending to only spend a few years in Seattle Fr. Treacy is still with us 63 years later. During Fr. Treacy's time in Seattle he has served countless people, was on television for 14 years addressing the issues of the day with a Jewish Rabbi Levine and Dr. Lynn Corson, and co-founded Camp Brotherhood with Rabbie Levine.

St. Thomas More will miss you Fr. Treacy. We are proud to have had you among us and know that you are still doing Gods work at Camp Brotherhood just up the road.
