	Bishop Says Natrona Pastor Who Resigned Broke Church Money Rules Associated Press, carried in Pittsburgh Tribune-Review May 16, 2008 http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburghtrib/news/s_567859.html Pittsburgh's Roman Catholic bishop says a pastor who resigned from two parishes broke church laws, but not man's laws, in mishandling church funds. The Rev. Richard Tusky resigned Feb. 26 as from St. Joseph in Natrona and Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Natrona Heights. Pittsburgh Bishop David Zubik says there are unresolved questions about how Tusky handled money from memorial booklets, rental property and an estate sale. The bishop says it's impossible to determine whether money is missing because proper records weren't kept. Bishop says Tusky remains in good standing and will be reassigned to another parish. story continues below Tusky has denied taking money but acknowledged in a letter to a parishioner that he may have lost track of some funds.
