REVEREND LAURENCE CRANEY 1906 - 1952 During the afternoon of February 29 the fac- ulty and students of Loras were shocked to hear of the sudden death of Father Craney. He was born in Independence, Iowa, on lanuary 10, 1906, Was graduated from Loras College in 1929, ordained in 1934 and served as assistant in St. Columbkilles parish until appointed pas- tor of Wexford in 1943. He came to Loras as business manager in 1946 and guided the financial destiny of the school through the difficult post-war period of shortages and rising prices. While the students he served were in the third day of their retreat, the most powerful sermon they heard was the report of the sudden heart attack and death of Father Craney. His name is now added to those who spent them- selves in faithful service to the students of Loras. Requiescat in pace page eight REV. CHARLES WHALEN, M.A. Loras Academy Bursar MR.
