Father Barrett was an Irish priest at OUR Texas parish when WE were growing up. He was one of OUR heroes. His sermons were effective and inspiring.
He was a young priest when a pilot intentionally crashed his plane into the Virgen De San Juan Catholic Church in 1970.
There were 30 priests present. 200 school children were in the church cafeteria having lunch.
Only the pilot was killed.
Father Barrett passed away in 2014 at age 77.
WE fondly remember him.
