Msgr. Lavery Retires After 12 years Here

Announcement was made Sunday in SS. Peter and Paul Catholic church of the resignation of Msgr. D.J. Lavery. Bishop Edward Fitzgerald of Winona appointed Father Sherlock Weir of Vernon Center, Minn. to succeed him.

Msgr. Lavery has been in ill health in recent months, and is now in retirement at Schullsburg, Wis. His service in the priesthood began about 52 years ago and he had 42 years of service in Wabasha County.
​

He has conducted parishes in Pipestone, Murray and Wabasha counties. He was pastor in Plainview for 22 years and under his administration a very fine church and rectory was erected. After his pastorship of St. Mary’s in Lake City he came to Mazeppa where he is beloved by the parish and entire community.
At all times he took an active interest in the affairs of the church and community, and he will be greatly missed.
