SALT LAKE CITY A remembrance wall at Mount Calvary Catholic Cemetery honors the priests and deacons who have served in the Catholic Diocese of Salt Lake City by listing their names.
The list inscribed on the wall of the columbarium on the north side of the mausoleum displays the names of 123 priests and 36 deacons, honoring their service to the diocese. The list was compiled by Msgr. J. Terrence Fitzgerald, the diocese’s vicar general emeritus; Msgr. Joseph M. Mayo, a retired priest of the diocese; and John Curtice, the cemetery director.
