Luigi Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 http://www.nytimes.com/2016/03/06/arts/design/rev-robert-palladino-83-scribe-who-shaped-apples-fonts.html?smid=pl-share&_r=3 Fr. Robert Palladino was a master calligrapher; he taught Steve Jobs. Much of the article focuses on that. But the interesting part is that he was originally a Trappist monk/priest (Guadalupe Abbey in New Mexico, which later moved to Oregon), he left the order after Vatican II, was laicized, married and had a son, and then was re-ordained as a diocesan priest after his wife died. All of that is detailed starting about two-thirds of the way through the article. Some of them monks are some int'resting folks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RafaelCordero Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Correction: The NYT article says "re-admitted to the priesthood," NOT re-ordained. Ordination leaves an indelible mark on the soul (See CCC 1583). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
