A tremendous priest, professor, chaplain, and champion of Holy Cross and the Jesuits. He will truly be missed. His classes were some of my favorite at Holy Cross and I always enjoyed seeing him at sporting events. RIP Fr. Kuzniewski.

Is it possible we could pin his final note of thanks somewhere permanently on this board?

Fr. K. last visited the board on December 8. The BSA have published a tribute on YouTibe. Thanks so much for sharing the beautiful tribute, PP. Hard to keep the tears from flowing.

Just a thought, it would be fitting tribute for our teams to wear a Fr. K patch for this academic year.

The winter issue of Holy Cross magazine asks that anyone wishing to share a memory, tribute, or photo of Fr. K. send such to hcmag@holycross.edu
The spring 2017 issue will include an extended remembrance of Fr. K.

Service for Fr. K was very well done. HC Athletics was well represented, by administrators, coaches, and athletes, and Fr. Burroughs delivered a wonderful homily. May his spirit continue to guide the Holy Cross community.

As an FYI for anyone wondering about the lack of the "Fr. K" patch on the basketball uniforms, a reliable source told me at the game that they are in the process of making slightly smaller patches but they were supposed to have been on the uniforms for tonight's game. Expect them back on the unis shortly.

Well they need to leave room for their transcripts and list of extracurricular activities.

Before attending the official opening ceremony for the Luth Athletic Complex, I made my somewhat usual trip to the Jesuit cemetery on campus to say some prayers for the Jesuits who taught and guided us. I only met Fr. K a few times and I know he was a great influence on many Holy Cross students, especially our student-athletes. For those who live too far to get to campus, here is Fr. K's resting place. He would have been so excited today with the LAC and such a gorgeous day weather-wise.

Wonderful addition to our board---I, too, when on campus, always made a visit to the Jesuit cemetery to say a prayer for some of my professors

Fr. K was the long-time chaplain to the football and basketball teams. I believe, Rev. Keith Maczkiewicz, S.J., (Fairfield '04) " Fr. Mac" (now back to Fairfield as campus chaplain) took his place at some point. I noticed awhile back but didn't think to post anything here that it does not appear that any teams have a Jesuit chaplain. Anyone have any insights on this? I know Bob Chesney is Catholic (at least his kids are) but pretty sure Brett Nelson is not. I know the number of Jesuits is dwindling but as a Jesuit school, shouldn't each team have a chaplain? I know there are now 11 Jesuits and most are almost old enough to be my father but how about Tim O'Brien '06? Or even Jim Hayes '72? www.holycross.edu/jesuit-tradition/jesuit-community/jesuit-community-membersOr, am I just wrong and they have a chaplain?

I have no clue if there is one or not
The school has 9 chaplains. Only one (Fr Hayes) is a Catholic priest. It is possible in this day and age that a team has a chaplain that is not a Jesuit, so we don't realize it
Fr Vodoklys used to be pretty regular at the Hart
