Parochial vicar named for Madonna of Czestochowa parish

The Rev. Robert Miller, a Darlington native and 1984 Blackhawk High School graduate, was named parochial vicar of Mary Mother of Hope this week. He succeeds the Rev. J. Peter Horton, who now directs campus ministries at LaRoche College and serves as Catholic chaplain at North Hills Passavant Hospital.
