Hundreds of parishioners, family members and brother priests from the Diocese of Trenton and other Dioceses filled St. Rose of Lima Church for the Mass of Christian Burial celebrated for Father James A. Conover Sept. 4.

Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M., was principal celebrant and homilist of the Mass for Father Conover, who was the longtime pastor of the Freehold parish. Father Conover died Aug. 28 at age 77.
“There is something particularly poignant about celebrating the funeral of a priest in the church where he so often stood at this altar, preached the Gospel, celebrated the Eucharist, baptized children, witnessed marriages, heard confessions, anointed the sick and commended the dead to God,” Bishop O’Connell said. “Today, the priest who so often prayed these prayers for others is the one for whom we now pray.”
