IN MEMORIAM During the Summer of 1959, three of our most beloved and revered educators passed on to their eternal reward. Absent from the halls of St. Francis are Reverend Brother Jerome, O.S.F., Professor Francis A. Delaney and Professor Patrick J. DeTuro. It is only fitting and right that we dedicate a small portion of the 1960 Franciscan to their memory, and in so doing offer the homage that is their due. Certainly we in our insignificance cannot properly evaluate them; only God is their Judge. We can measure them in relation to the good that they have done for us, their pupils. They gave a full measure . . . Reverend Brother Jerome, O.S.F. Educator, Administrator, Franciscan Brother Jerome Roese, O.S.F., combined these qualities skillfully and magnificently in a superb blend called the man of God. In his twenty-five years at St. Francis College, Brother Jerome assumed the duties of Dean, President, member of the Third Order Regular’s Board of Consultors and Superior General of the Franciscan Brothers. In tribute to Brother Jerome’s devotion to his Order and his students, a memorial scholarship was inaugurated to provide a deserving Catholic youth with a four year Franciscan education.

Professor Francis A. Delaney, M.A. “Though the trains he not on time, This class starts at nine ” Variations of this refrain were one of Professor Francis A. Delaneys trademarks in the college where he taught for twenty-five years. During this quarter of a century of dedicated service to the students, he was the competent instructor, the eager moderator, the reassuring friend. It is not difficult to measure this man’s worth to our college; indeed, he is greatly missed. For the first time in twenty-five years, the Dean’s Oratorical Contest was not presided over by its inaugurator, Professor Delaney. A unanimous Student Council suggestion pro¬ posed renaming the contest the Professor Francis A. Delaney Memorial Oratorical Contest. Professor Patrick J. DeTuro, M.B.A. The winning smile, the warm casual manner, the air of a truly excellent teacher: this is the magic St. Francis College lost in Patrick J. DeTuro. Professor DeTuro came to St. Francis in Sep¬ tember, 1957, after many years of teaching and a tenure as Senior Economist for the Office of Price Administration. Economics was his field, and the stock market his forte; he was a member of Pi Alpha Kappa, a financial Honor Society and was influential in establishing a chapter of Omicron Chi Epsilon, the Economic Fraternity, here at St. Francis. In his few years on the faculty, Professor DeTuro commanded respect and admiration in and out of the classroom. What is a more fitting tribute than to have a completed task perfectly accomplished. 13
