Note: The Official Catholic Directory might not offer a complete list of Davenport priests who died in the early 1990s. A 2000 study by the Kansas City Star found that a small number of priests who had died of AIDS were not listed in the Directory. See Judy L. Thomas, "Review Confirms More than 300 AIDS-Related Deaths," Kansas City Star, November 4, 2000. If the Davenport diocese chose not to list AIDS deaths in the Official Catholic Directory, the priest they mention in para. b might be one of these unlisted priests.
