Father Sean Lonergan, 36, a priest at St. Veronica Catholic Church, told reporters Tuesday that he plans to give up the collar when his parents die. 'I've come to the realization that the priesthood is not for me, but it would crush Mom and Dad to see me abandon my faith,' Lonergan said. 'They've always been so good to me and my four brothers, so I can wait.' Lonergan said both his parents have lived hard lives and couldn't possibly have more than 20-odd years left in them.
