Allen P Novotny SJ.jpegAt this moment, family, friends, and Jesuits are gathering for the Mass of Christian Burial for the Reverend Father Allen P. Novotny, SJ, 58, President of Gonzaga College High School, Washington, DC. I mention this because I had the privilege of living with Allen for a year and liked him very much. I've been saddened since hearing the news on October 27th that Allen died earlier that day from a mutual friend. I was unable to make the funeral Mass but have not ceased praying for Allen's peace and God's mercy upon Allen and the rest of us. Eternal rest, dear friend.

A fitting video tribute to Father Allen

Gonzaga's The Aquilian paid this tribute to Father Allen.
