Several Venango Christian High School graduates have organized a memorial Mass and fellowship gathering next month to honor former faculty member Father John E. Santor, who taught at the school and served at St. Stephen Church in Oil City during the 1960s and 70s. The celebration of life Mass will be held March 12 at St. Venantius Church in Rouseville, followed by refreshments and a time for sharing memories. Santor, who died in December 2025 at age 86, was remembered for his strong connections with students and parishioners, his decades of ministry throughout the Erie Diocese and his lasting influence on the local community.
