Brother Aloysius Raphael Cecchini, a familiar figure to students at Bishop Loughlin for 45 years, died on January 24, 2001 at the Brothers' nursing home in Lincroft, New Jersey.
Brother Raphael was born on May 14, 1913, in Penn Yan, NY. He received the habit of the Brothers of the Christian Schools on September 7, 1930, at Barrytown, NY, and pronounced his final profession on September 8, 1938, also at Barrytown. He earned an A.B. in 1942 from Manhattan College, Bronx, NY, and a M.S. and Ph.D. from Fordham University, Bronx, NY. After teaching some years at Lincoln Hall and Manhattan College HS, he came to Loughlin in 1956 and quickly made the Guidance Department a vital part of the school. In 1975 he suffered a stroke, but continued to work in the school on a restricted basis for many years.
