Msgr. Bugman Msgr. John Bugman (former pastor of 14 Holy Helpers), formerly living at Our Lady of Victory, is now at St. Elizabeth Home in Lancaster, which will become his new permanent home. He, his doctors, and his family made this decision based on the kind of care he needs. The Lancaster location puts him near relatives and friends. We know he would appreciate hearing from you by way of a card or note. In a few weeks he will be ready to receive visitors, but, in the meantime, drop him a note or a card and wish him well. His new address is:
Msgr. John Bugman, St. Elizabeth Home, 5539 Broadway, Lancaster, NY 14086.

This week I began physical therapy, which if successful, may enable me to avoid future surgery. Special thanks to Fr. Joe, the staff, the choir, and to Paul Weisenburger & the Angels for their help.”
