On May 15 of this year, Connelly was diagnosed again.” One blessing Connelly is most grateful for is that which earned him the name “Cathedral Angel.” One Christmas, white still attending St. Ttionias Seminary, there was a violent blizzard. “1 accidentally was locked out of the seminary, so 1 had to sleep in my car,” he explained. When Msgr. James Rasby, then rector of the Cathedral of the Im­ maculate Conception, heard about his plight, he offered Cormelly a room in the cathedral. But, “He said, 'If you are going to stay here, you are going to have to work.’” While serving as a lector, Connelly explained that he had long blond hair and wore a “beautiful prayer robe.” He earned his nickname during filming of a midnight Mass, when he was dubbed the Cathedral Angel' on T. V. PAINTINGS DESTROYED Eventually, wishing to utilize his artistic talent, he began attending classes at the Colorado Institute of Art. But before he could complete his studies, Connelly said his father, in a drunken rage, entered his apartment and began destroying his paintings with a knife. In dispair, Connelly traveled to California where he opened two businesses, a hair salon and an art gallery. “It all took off at the same time,” he said. Parishes began to request custom-built altars and tabernacles. His icon paintings sold for up to $2000, and he had a personal request from Mother Teresa for a painting. “I painted (the Missionary Sisters of Charity) a Madonna,” he explained, adding that the Madonna was wearing the habit of the sisters. “When Mother Teresa came to San Francisco, she asked if she could have it.” It was nearly 10 years later that Connelly was diag­ nosed with ARC (AIDS Related Complex). Symptoms of ARC may include chronic fatigue, recurrent diarrhea, weight loss, persistent fevers and night sweats, and may last for several years before developing into AIDS. Knowing what was going to happen, Connelly de­ cided to sell his businesses and travel. He was fighting constant illness without insurance and was forced to pay cash for medical treatment. Eventually, his money ran out.

(Editor’s note: This is the second in a series of three about Samaritan House, the archdiocese’s shelter for the homeless. The Archdiocese of Denver was the first in the nation to build a shelter from the ground up exclusively for the homeless five years ago this coming November.)

In Denver metro area 300 different facilities available

Unless you’ve been looking for housing which is an allemative to your single family dwelling, you may not have noticed that the metropolitan area now has more than 300 different facilities. As the population of older adults continues to grow, additional housing options from which to select arc available. Tlie various types of housing for older adults varies with the amount of care which the residents need and by the amount residents arc willing to pay. There are so many different labels used for the types of housing available that the subject quickly becomes confusing. For the sake of simplicity, there tne tlirec primary categories of housing available for older adults besides a single family detached home. Independent Living These apartments or retirement communities offer a variety of benefits. Although services may vary, many offer meals in a dining room, transportation and social activities. Residents are healthy and able to care for themselves. More than 150 independent living facilities arc lo­ cated throughout the Denver metro area with costs ranging from $550 to $2,500 per month. Facilities such as Lakewood Estates Retirement Center, Longmont Regent and Sunset Park are all considered independent living facilities. Financial assistance, primarily federal, is available in some communities. Assisted Living Some apartments or retirement communities have a floor set apart for assisted living. In assisted living housing, personal care such as bathing, supervision of medications, housekeeping imd three meals each day are provided. These facilities may also be called personal care boarding homes. Currently there are more than 80 licensed assisted living facilities in the metro area ranging from $550 to $2,500 each month, depending upon the amount of care the resident requires.

Jnnwa B«cm/DCR Photo MULLEN HOME in Denver. Ombudsman Program needs volunteers

A volunteer ombudsman looks into the complaints and concerns of nursing home and personal care board­ ing home residents and their families, and helps them resolve their problems. There are three ombudsman at the Denver Regional Council of Govermnents (DROG) who help represent the 15,000 residents of nursing homes and persona 1 care boarding homes in the seven-county Denver metro area. But, there are too many issues for three ombuds­ man to handle, and that’s where volunteers have a role to play. The DROG Ombudsman Program needs volunteer ombudsman. The program is looking for professional and highly skilled individuals who have strong commu­ nications and problem-solving abilities, and who can regularly visit nursing homes and personal care board­ ing homes to listen to the concerns of residents and their families. Orientation, training and ongoing supervision and support are given to each volunteer. Orientation for new volunteers is planned for early November. For more information on becoming a vol­ unteer ombudsman, call the DROG Aging Services Division at 480-6787.

Retirees' role in Denver Catholic Register — October 30,1991 — Page 21 economic future There has been a great deal of discussion recently regarding the aging of America. Certainly, as the baby boomers move into their 30’s and 40’s, attention is shifting from yoimg people to retirees and their role in a region’s economic future. This is of particular importance to Colorado, where there is some evidence that people leave the state once they retire. According to Dr. Tucker Hart Adams, Central Bank ’ s chief economist, the 1980 census showed that during the 1970’s , Colorado experienced an out-migration of men over age 65. “It’s interesting to note that for the last 30 years, people over age 60 have relocated to rural counties and several in Colorado have benefited,” she said. “American Demographics listed Archuleta County, Colorado as one of the top 20 non-metropolitan retire­ ment counties in the United States between 1980 and 1988, with a 42 percent population decrease.” Montrose, Delta and Mesa counties along with the Western Slope, Phillips County in the northeast comer Father K now s of the state and Fremont, Chaffee, Lake and Park counties southwest of Denver were also powerful re­ tirement magnets, with population growth among those 60 and older, more than 15 percent from net migration alone. But, are retirees a plus or minus for a community? An B e s t . economic development opportunity to be pursued or an expense to be avoided? When the time came tor niy “Clearly, they are an economic plus,” notes Adams. father to choose a home lor his “Retirees arrive with Social Security checks as well as pension and investment income. This is basic industry retirement, he knew exactly for a community, bringing new dollars into a region just what choice to make. The one as surely as manufacturing , agriculture, mining and that provides both financial and tourism do.” According to Adams, during the two recessions that rental options, and five levels of battered the country between 1980 and 1982, employ­ health care that meet his specific ment in retirement communities grew faster than in needs — available from Denver's other counties.

The Villas are regulated by the ( 'olorado Doision of Insurance. “Generally retirement income is not affected by ups and downs of the business cycle,” Adams said. “The checks arrive steadily in good times as well as bad.” Independence with all the comfort and eonvenience of home, and no maintenance According to American Demographics, retirees who hassles, which gives him more time to come and go just as he pleases.
