Fr. Bill Wilson

Fr. Bill WilsonFr. Bill Wilson was the assistant pastor at All Hallows Catholic Church, where Mt. Soledad Mens held its meetings until moving across the street around 2000.

Although he came from Ireland, Fr. Bill professed to never drinking until after he became a priest and was sent to Rome by his church to help further his studies.

Here is a talk given by Fr. Bill  at an unidentified Round Up sometime in the 1990's: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4.

A regular member of Mt. Soledad Mens until he moved to a retirement home for the last few years of his life, Fr. Bill is remembered for his enthusiasm and his great sense of humor, which he shared generously with the men of the group.
