Frather Dehler has been a life long friend of our family. His sister Katherine was a childhood friend of my mother's AnnaMary Heinrich Budill when she was growing up in Brazil, Indiana. As a graduate of Loyola and an employee at the Loyola Medical Center, our family remained in contact with Fr. Bill. He officiated at Masses for many family occasions--my parents 50th anniversay--funeral masses for both my parents and my husband's family as well. I was able to visit him at Colombiere 2 years ago and he celebrated mass at that time. He has been in my thoughts so much lately--he will be missed. Sincerely
