Cardinal O'Malley's $343K/Year Failure

It is official. Praise God–our prayers at Boston Catholic Insider have been answered! Mary Grassa O’Neill, Secretary for Education in the Boston Archdiocese, is stepping down.

Earning$343,000 a year, she has been the “poster child” for excessive six-figure salaries paid to lay executives in the Boston Archdiocese in recent years. BCI and others have been complaining about her and her salary for three years now.
