Fr. John Riccardo of Our Lady of Good Counsel, Plymouth, MI, is intellectually brilliant, a wonderful teacher, a compassionate shepherd and a remarkably deep thinker. He exemplifies all that is good about the priesthood by his constant devotion to our Lady, his fidelity to the Magisterium and his unabashed love of Jesus Christ. A real man for a man's job. – N. C.
