Father Joseph Pallo was a parish priest for 50 years in Arkansas, from 1961-2011. and retired to California after 23 years as pastor at Immaculate Conception in Blytheville. He is currently hospitalized at OrangeCoast Memorial Hospital in Fountain Valley, Calif., for possible blood clot in his left leg, which is swollen and inflamed. and waiting for test results and decision of surgeon. Not the kind of holiday he planned to be spending this year. Pray for him.
