Huelsbeck Retires After 70 Years Service To Cantonment, Molino Catholic Communities
September 2, 2018
Longtime Cantonment resident Jody Huelsbeck has retired from St. Jude Thaddeus Catholic Church in Cantonment after over 70 years of service to the Catholic church community in Cantonment and Molino.
Whether he was keeping the church campus mowed, changing light bulbs, eradicating wasp nests, or whatever needed to be done, he was there.
He served as an altar boy at St. Elizabeth’s Catholic Church many years ago, was involved with Santa Maria Church, and was involved with St. Judge’s since its inception – even helping with construction of the church.
He was a member of the Knights of Columbus Santa Maria Council, donating his times and talents to help and serve wherever needed.
Huelsbeck, according to those that know him best, always had a smile on his face and a witty greeting for anyone he encountered.
He also known for the creating beautiful rosaries, sometimes combining them with a religious artwork print for bishops, priests and other dignitaries. He has also sent his special artwork with greetings from St Jude’s to Pope Francis and President Donald Trump, receiving replies of gratitude in return.
