Thursdoy 9 a.m.-6 p.m.; Saturday 9 a.m.-5 p.m It was a day to remember -- to rejoice -- to regret. It was Sunday, June 24, and the parishioners of St. Mary's Catholic church were honoring their pastor, Father E.C. Baumhofer, on his retirement and bidding him a reluctant good­ bye. There were happy moments -- there were times of nostalgia -- and there were glimpses into the future without the guidance of a priest who offered his first Mass in McHenry in 1944. The incidents of Sunday are now happy memories that will remain long in the future for the loyal flock of a caring pastor. STAFF PHOTOS/WAYNE GAYLORD Father E.C.
