BROTHER JOSEPH DONOVAN, S.C. For the past fifteen years Brother Joseph Donovan has been vitally involved in the operation of the school and in the lives of the students. In addition to his serv¬ ing as prefect for seniors and juniors during all of these years he has, for different periods of time, served as teacher, Student Council Moderator, discipli¬ narian, and Assistant Principal. Innumerable construc¬ tion and repair projects have been successfully com¬ pleted because of this mechanical and electrical know¬ how. This exceptionally gifted and very personable reli¬ gious man exemplifies the total dedication to the voca¬ tion he has chosen in helping young men to mature into responsible Christians. Using the freedom for service that his life of vows makes possible. Brother Joseph remains totally availa¬ ble to assist students in their time of need. Thousands of young men are better persons because their lives have been influenced by his understanding guidance and straight forward counsel. To know him is to respect and admire this man of God, this model of a man’s man, this impressive religious gentleman. That he is a point of reference in the lives of many people i$ evidenced by the large number of alumni and former students to continually come back to St. Stanislaus wanting to visit with Bro. Joseph and talk over old times. The Brothers of the Sacred Heart and St. Stanislaus have been singularly blessed in the person of Bro. Joseph. His faith in God and devotion to duty are hall¬ marks that he impresses on all those with whom he comes in contact. May the Sacred Heart grant him length of days in a work that he performs so admirably. May the Sacred Heart continue to bless him and all of his endeavors as we acknowledge the great meaning that he occupies in our lives. Brother Claver, S.C., Director of Student Accounts.
