"My grandfather, Joseph Francis Loughran, was born in 1899 in Philadelphia. As told by his descendants, the stories of his life range from the rather tragic to the humorous. . . .
"Despite these reminiscences, the image I always have of my grandfather is of him sitting in his favorite chair. He would sit there every morning around 6 am and recite aloud his long list of devotional prayers followed by his rosary. . . ."
In a recent commentary, Father Jack Loughran,
OSFS, reflected on the daily ritual his grandfather modeled for him and on why it is important to spend time each day in prayer.
