It is with sadness, but also with trust and faith in God, that we send you this update regarding Peter Deitschel. Mr. Deitschel passed away on Saturday afternoon.
As the school administration learns of plans for services for both Mr. Deitschel and Mr. O'Connell, we will certainly forward this information. Please feel free to send any news that you may know so that we may share with the broader Antonian family.
Eternal rest grant unto Peter Deitschel and Ray O'Connell, O Lord.
And let perpetual light shine upon them.
May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

We would like to request prayers for members of the Antonian family.
- We received word today that Peter Deitschel, father of Antonian graduates Jessica '09, James '10, Megan '12, Samantha '15, current freshman Kara, and a younger 7-year-old son has been placed in ICU as a result of bleeding on the brain. At last report, he is non-responsive.
- We have also received word that Ray O'Connell '75 has passed away. Not only did Ray graduate from Antonian, but he also was a teacher at the school years ago. Ray has two children who graduated from Antonian--Emma '07 and John "Mac" '10--as well as several brothers and other extended family members who have graduated or presently attend Antonian.
Please keep these families in your prayers. We will share more news as we learn of any.
