R.I.P. Dr. Thomas Dillon
I just found out that Dr. Thomas Dillon, the President of Thomas Aquinas College in California and whose children went to high school with me, was killed today in a car accident in Ireland. The following is posted on TAC's website:
On Wednesday, April 15, 2009, Dr. Thomas E. Dillon, the president of Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula, California, was killed in an automobile accident in Ireland, where he was traveling with his wife, Terri, on behalf of the college. Mrs. Dillon was only slightly injured and is hospitalized for the time being. Family members and a representative of the College are en route to Ireland to bring Mrs. Dillon back to California and to accompany Dr. Dillon’s body.
A rosary was said and Mass offered for the repose of Dr. Dillon’s soul at 3:00 p.m. today in Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel. Information concerning funeral arrangements will be posted at a later time.
Please pray for the happy repose of Dr. Dillon’s soul, and for the consolation of his family.
