Comments on Buffalo Diocese Announces More Parish Closings Across WNY WGRZ September 20, 2008 http://www.topix.com/forum/city/buffalo-ny/TKUTP23BVT3RTC9QV/p855 I was in residence with he [Rev. Basil A. Ormsby] and Dick Judd in the mid-70's. My room was the only room that didn't have its own bathroom, but it came with a sink for a nightstand. Irene was the secretary and we had an assortment of cooks in my seven months there. A product of an age gone by, he was much the eccentric, yet he was kindly in his own sort of way. He kept a police scanner which he would listen to for hours while working at his desk. The scanner drove me nuts, but he never locked Dick, nor I out of the house [as alleged by another commenter]. When I left, he refused to accept my key, but insisted I keep it in the event I was nearby and had an emergency.

He gave me money to keep silent! He fled from the house quickly afterwords! Wonder if any other children that went to St Teresa's in South buffalo had also been victimized by the future Msngr?
