Father Earl Ullman
Father Earl Ullman on the morning of March 19, 2001, the Feast of St. Joseph, died peacefully. Father Earl was born in 1913, in Detroit, Mich., son of Louis and Anna Ullman; brother of Ruth, Hazel and Chester. He attended Our Lady of Sorrows Elementary Catholic School before entering Sacred Heart Seminary in Detroit. After he completed his high school and college at Sacred Heart he entered Mount St. Mary's Seminary in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he completed his studies for the priesthood on June 11, 1938, by bishop Edward Mooney for the Diocese of Detroit.
His first priestly assignments in the Diocese of Detroit from 1938-44 included St. Mary Magdalene Hazel park and Our Lady of the Rosary, Detroit where he served as an assistant pastor. In 1944, he transferred to the Diocese of San Diego serving first at Our Lady of Angeles Church in San Diego as an assistant pastor until Nov. 15, 1946.
On Oct. 9, 1946, Fr. Earl was incardinated into the Diocese of San Diego, which led the way for his first assignment as parish administrator to St. Mary's in Escondido on Nov. 15, 1946. He served the faithful of this parish until July 1949. From there he went on to serve as administrator of St. Mary Magdalene, Jacumba (1947-49), and Blessed Sacrament, Descanso (1949-51). He was appointed for short terms as an assistant pastor in St. Charles Boromeo, San Diego (1951), St. George, Ontario (1951-53) and St. Margaret, Chino (53).
Bishop Charles F. Buddy on Nov. 17, 1953, appointed Fr. Ullman as administrator to St. Peter's in Fallbrook. He served there for 15 years. On April 26, 1968, Bishop Leo T. Maher appointed Fr. Earl as pastor to St. Francis of Assisi, where he served for 10 years until his retirement on Nov. 1, 1978.
While as pastor of St. Francis he saw the need to build a bigger church as the Catholic population of Vista continued to grow quickly in North County. In 1973, the new church was dedicated. More importantly than building a new church building through his 62 years of priestly ministry he built up the church as the Body of Christ through his preaching and pastoral care of God's people.
In 1978, he asked for retirement because he was beginning to lose his hearing. Though his hearing loss was great he was always tuned into the word of God, which was most evident in his preaching and the manner in which he treated those who would seek him out. The parishioners from his beloved St. Francis Church continued to reach out to him in his later years by bringing him daily meals to his home. At first he said no because he did not wish to be a burden to them. Little did he know that by bringing him his daily meal he was helping them to carry their burdens in life by his gentle and welcoming spirit of love. The faithful of St. Francis looked upon him as the grandfather of the parish. Indeed, he was a grand man, a grand priest and the grand Father Earl Ullman.
A vigil service will be at 7 p.m. today, March 22, at St. Francis Catholic Church in Vista. A Mass will be celebrated at 1 p.m. Friday, March 23, at St. Francis Catholic Church. Burial will be in Michigan.
