St Joseph's Home for the Elderly Remains Open
The St Joseph's home, begun as a residence for the elderly, continues to provide nursing care after the diocese reversed a 1970 plan to phase it out. The first floor holds self care patients while the upper floors care for nursing patients. Bishop Freking affirmed the home's continued role as a symbol of diocesan commitment to the elderly.
