Father John Fahey, S.J. was bom and raised in Newark, New Jersey. He was the oldest child in a family of eight, and was a member ofhis family's singing group, The Four Little Faheys . The group led by his father, a honky tonk piano player, played with popular acts and received first rate reviews in Billboard magazine. At age 18, Fahey joined the Society of Jesus in Poughkeepsie, N.Y. Af- ter 15 years of intense academic and theological studies, Reverend John Fahey, S.J. was ordained. His lirst assignment as a Jesuit priest was at the Kings County Medical Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. As Chap- lain at one of the largest public hospitals in the country, Father Fa- hey had a difficult task. He quickly responded by making many friends and loving life in the city. Physicians and other hospital workers asked him to Baptize their babies, some of whom were even- tually married by him also. Life was wonderful for him and he would have been content to re- main in New York City for the re- mainder of his career. However, that was not to be the case. He was transferred to Mon- roe, N.Y., a small tovxm many miles from the city to run a youth retreat. The retreat house served as an escape for kids from the city and became one of the busiest in the country. After many years at the retreat, Fa- ther Fahey became ill and took a leave of absence. He visited the Loyola University Rome Center in Italy. After befriending a student there, he was asked to perform her wedding in a Chicago suburb. While in Chicago he was sum- moned by his friend, Father Hayes. to come to Loyola Medical Center and become the medical student minister and faculty advisor. He accepted the position for one year . One year has become sev- enteen years. His accomplishments dunng the seventeen years are endless. They I am a Jesuit. Some ofyou might know what Jesuits are, oth ers may not, The first dictionary definition says l'm a member of a religious order. The second dehnition is the best: a lying, craky, untrustworth y intriguer , . . So this lying, infa- mous, double-talking Jesuit wel- comes you. My door will always be open. I don 't preach and you don 't have to be Catholic to speak with me. lam here for you. -Father John Fahey, S.J.
