Father Michael DiGregorio, prior provincial of the Augustinian Province of Saint Thomas of Villanova, recently presented the 2018 Saint Augustine Medal to Dr. Pamela Abraham, who accepted the medal on behalf of retired Auxiliary Bishop of Philadelphia Louis A. DeSimone, D.D.
The medal was awarded at a gala dinner at Philadelphia Country Club attended by more than 350 guests last month.
An affiliate of the Order of Saint Augustine and a Bridgeport native, DeSimone has been a close friend of the Augustinians for decades.
