For over 80 years, Catholic Charities, Diocese of Paterson has been providing help and creating hope for those most in need. We recognize and honor the many staff, leaders, friends and service recipients who have come before. There may be no one more memorable than Walter. 47 years ago today, Walter, who lived at the Department for Persons with Disabilities and who happened to have an intellectual disability, saved the life of an abandoned newborn infant.
