Former Holy Name Chaplain Fr. Krizner Passes Away

With great sadness in our hearts, we share the news that Fr. William Krizner, former Holy Name Chaplain, has passed away. Fr. Krizner served at Holy Name for more than 20 years, working with students from the late 1980s to the late 2000s. Even after he left Holy Name to become pastor at St. Colette in Brunswick, he continued to make an impact at Holy Name, hosting retreats at St. Colette and returning to campus to celebrate Mass.

Fr. Krizner will be dearly missed by the thousands of students, faculty and staff members, and parishioners he prayed for, counseled, and ministered to during his more than 40 years as a priest. Funeral arrangements will be shared once available. Until then, please pray for Fr. Krizner, his family, and the many who called him a mentor and friend.
