Prayers & thoughts to the family of Fr. McEntee. I had the utmost respect for him. I served for many years for Father McEntee at St Joseph Parish in Farmington and was lucky enough to be able to serve at one of his anniversary masses at the Cathedral of St Louis. Rest in Peace.

You changed my life. On the last day of 1967 you baptized me at St. Joan of Arc. And now I'm a priest! Thank you for bringing me into the life of the Church. May Christ welcome home Fr. McEntee, a good priest.

Fr McEntee married us at St Joan of Arc on 9/10/66. We have a picture of him at our wedding breakfast in our album. He was a wonderful priest. We will pray for the family.

Father McEntee was the head of St Joan of Arc CYC in the years 1966-68 and took our group to Tan Tara for a snow ski trip. What a fabulous trip and he was quite a leader and greatly influenced my life. ThAnks for your guidance and rest in peace Father Mac Steve Spreck

I remember serving Mass for Father McEntee at St Joan of Arc when I was a boy. I even served a wedding Mass for him at the Cathedral. I recall him as a very good priest. Deepest sympathies to his family and fellow clergy. May he rest in peace.
