He left home and family at the age of 25 and crossed the ocean to a world of new family, new friends, and very different ideas of life. Many Europeans who immigrated to America never returned to their native land but O'Neill was determined that he would remain Irish at heart and has returned home at least once a year for the last 53 years. He served parishes in New Orleans, Augusta. GA, and Columbus, GA before ending up in Savannah where he spent the last 32 years of his pastoral career serving in two of the city's larger parishes. He attended the North American College in Rome on two occasions to extend his education and has traveled to many countries outside of his native Ireland and adopted America. He is known for his amazing memory and the stories he can pull up for any occasion.view less
