Fr Pat Umberger passed away this morning

I got word that Fr. Pat Umberger has passed away this morning. His death was a result of his advanced cancer illness.


The Diocese press office has not yet replied to me.

A sad end to a sad tale. Fr. Umberger's charges were still being negotiated with the DA. His next hearing was in January. You can check back on the history by clicking here. I'll pass on details as they are coming. The Diocese has not issued a statement yet.

Fr. Umberger has suffered from cancer for many years and almost died last year to the same illness.
