How did this angelic young priest, at left, become this
wanted man, at right, heading off to the federal penitentiary? The O'D Web Site
will try to answer this question and shed light on the remarkable life of
Father Bill O'Donnell. It will grow by increments and will include some of his
life history and many of his musings on life, faith, justice, God and human
kind. It will, we hope, also include contributions from those of you who know
the O'D from the farm, seminary, parish, picket line or jail.
Please check in from time to time to read the latest
chapter on The O'D Web Site, and please send your stories about Father Bill and
your additions, comments and corrections concerning what you read here to our
email, along with a phone number or some other way to get in touch with you.
