I learned of Msgr. Taaffe’s work through the Knights of Columbus, who support his homes for pregnant women in the Salem area with thousands of dollars in donations each year. It’s hard to tell just how many lives Msgr. Taaffe touched with a positive, pro-life, pro-woman message, not to mention the ministry that he performed as a priest of God.
Be sure to read some of the comments attached to the article on the Statesman-Journal site. There are some loving tributes to Monsignor Taaffe there. May he rest in peace.
