Robert A. Skeris

Entreat the gracious mercy of God for the well-loved soul of

Robert A. Skeris, Dr.theol.

Born on the 11th of May 1935, he studied with no little success in America and Germany. After ordination to the Holy Priesthood for the Archdiocese of Milwaukee on 27th of May 1961, he travelled widely in his native country and in Europe, studying, teaching, and working at Bonn, Maria Laach, Rome, and Washington. Returning to the United States, he continued to give lavishly of his unusual talents and learning, gladly devoting all in the simplicity of his heart to God, his students, and his brethren. His ministry discharged, undismayed by long years of struggling to master the challenge of dealing with his superiors in ecclesiastical rank though not in ability, he fell asleep very peacefully in the Lord on the 18th of February 2025. It was his wish to be buried amongst his own people, and there he awaits the blessed hope and the coming in glory of our Lord Jesus Christ the Eternal High Priest. May he rest in peace.
