This month’s question:
Kim Szatkowski ’81
writes, “Abbot, I've always heard what a wonderful, generous man my great uncle, Father Luke Dionne, was. But he died suddenly when I was very young – I believe that would have been in the 1960s. Now, since nearly everyone who knew him is deceased, I wonder if the college archives have any more information on his legacy?
By the way, it is interesting that the Dionne family coat of arms includes the fleur-de-lis, also associated with the Norbertines, and that the family motto is ‘In Service to God.
’
Just curious, perhaps this went into Luke’s decision to become a Norbertine priest?”
Read the answer
Feel free to write the abbot at
askabbot@snc.edu with your questions about the college. He’ll be sure to respond, and he will post his favorite questions.
