Fr. Tynan Has Died


Some sad news: Fr. Joseph Tynan whom most will remember well and fondly, has died (Sat. 25 July) at the nursing home by Oulton Abbey.  He served lovers of the Traditional Rite well for years, introducing a regular Sunday Mass to his parish church (The Good Shepherd) in Blurton, though the church has since closed.  He lived to the age of 88, having been a priest since 1962, ordained on St. Patrick’s Day.  There will be only a limited number of mourners allowed when the funeral in the Abbey chapel takes place (Aug 5).  A later archdiocese organised funeral is intended.  Dates unknown as yet, and a helpful contact might be his housekeeper Sally Buckley (07740-760906), whose mother was previously his housekeeper for thirty years.
