The Dubuque Archbishop who confirmed me has passed at the age of 94.

--------------------------------------QUOTE--------------------------------------

A former leader of the Catholic Church’ Dubuque diocese has died. Archbishop-emeritus Daniel Kucera passed away this morning at the age of 94. He had most recently been residing at the Stonehill Care Center here in Dubuque. A Chicago native, Kucera became the Archbishop of Dubuque in February of 1984 and served until his retirement in October of 1995. His death comes just a couple of days after the 68th anniversary of when Kucera took his vows to become a priest.
