Gerald Vosen

Some of us called him "Greg." He came into the seminary as a "Special" student. And special he was, being very quiet and well-liked. Having entered in 1949, we eventually received him as a "classmate." He was very mature, compared to many of us. But I should speak for myself, only; it took me years to attain his maturity. As "president," Greg held us together in the very later years. In fact, we met at his residence for one of the annual meetings. He was extremely gracious. Perhaps...

Fr Vosen and I served parishes in Janesville some years ago... He brought a lively and deep faith to the people. Because we ae similar in age, it is not possible or me to travel from Madison for his funeral Mas. To All his family, my prayerful love and gratutude for his presence in my life and in the lives of countless people....Peace.... Fr Tom Doheny 313 Stratton Way, Madison wi 53719

My sympathy goes out to all his friends and family. I remember him and his puppet Mularkey from grade school in the 60s at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church where he served. He was a very well loved priest.

Father Vosen was such a kind, caring and compassionate man. When he was the parish priest in Cottage Grove in the 70´s, I was fortunate to chaperone a couple times to "I Get The Window" outings. His care and thoughtfulness of others will always be remembered.

He was such a gift from God to everyone! I was a frequent chaperon for the I Get The Window club in the 70's.....the group touched so many young people who were in need of heart and peace. RIP to a wonderful and kind person!

Father Vosen married us in 1969. He always remained in our hearts. Last year we went to visit him when we heard where he lived. We had a great visit. He of course remembered us and we shared stories and laughter. We were so blessed to know him.
