Loyola Mourns the Passing of Fr. Robert J. Welch, SJ ’47

Fr. Robert J. Welch, SJ, ’47 passed away on July 10, 2022 at Sacred Heart Jesuit Center in San Jose, California. He was 92 years old and a Jesuit for 74 years. Fr. Welch entered the Society of Jesus on August 14, 1947 at Sacred Heart Novitiate in Los Gatos, CA and was ordained June 16, 1960 at Blessed Sacrament Church in Hollywood. He pronounced his final vows on August 15, 1963 at Loyola Marymount University (LMU). Fr. Welch earned his Ph.D. at Claremont Graduate School, his M.A. in theology at Santa Clara University, his M.A. in political science at the University of San Francisco and his B.A. at Gonzaga University. Fr. Welch served Loyola Marymount University for over 50 years as a professor of political science beginning in 1969, as department head from 1984–1988, and then as professor emeritus from 2011. By his own count, he taught 210 courses and 4,840 students, both graduate and undergraduate, before moving to Sacred Heart Jesuit Center in 2020 for a ministry of prayer. A former catcher for Loyola High School, Father Welch loved baseball. He could often be seen at LMU’s Paige Stadium keeping score in his own book at most games and occasionally yelling at umpires. When he retired, he threw out the opening pitch at an LMU game. (Courtesy of Loyola Marymount University)
