Rev. robert holmes, CSB

Born in Rochester, New York, Father Tanck’s parents, both hardworking individuals, provided for their family while instilling strong Catholic values. Growing up, Father Tanck attended Aquinas Institute and was surrounded by all things Catholic, from school and convent to the parish hall with its unique bowling alley and downstairs bar. The vibrant traditions were in the air he breathed, influenced primarily by his Polish grandmother and the working-class community he was a part of.
