He served as Bishop of Syracuse from 1937 to 1970. BiographyWalter Foery was born in Rochester, New York, to William and Agnes (née O'Brien) Foery.[1] After attending St. Bridget's Grade School and St. Andrew's Preparatory Seminary, he studied at St. Bernard's Seminary.[2] He was ordained to the priesthood on June 10, 1916.[3] He then served as a curate (1916-1922) and afterwards pastor (1922-1932) of Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Rochester.[2] He became diocesan director of Catholic Charities in 1930 and pastor of Holy Rosary Church in 1932.[2] He also served as vice-chairman of the Rochester Council of Social Agencies, and represented the National Catholic Welfare Council at the International Conference on Social Welfare in 1936.[1] On May 26, 1937, Foery was appointed the fifth Bishop of Syracuse by Pope Pius XI.[3] He received his episcopal consecration on the following August 18 from Archbishop Edward Mooney, with Bishops Emmet M. Walsh and Francis Patrick Keough serving as co-consecrators.[3] At age 46, he was the youngest priest appointed to head the Syracuse diocese, and would become its longest-serving Ordinary to date.[4] In 1945, Foery criticized as "unthinkable" the plan to leave out opening prayers at the San Francisco conference of the United Nations.[4] In 1959, he expressed "shock and deep regret" that the Syracuse Metropolitan Health Council had admitted Planned Parenthood.[4] He was named an Assistant at the Pontifical Throne on December 11, 1961.[2] He attended all four sessions of the Second Vatican Council in Rome between 1962 and 1965.[3] In 1967, he joined the other Catholic bishops in New York to call Catholics to fight with "all their power" against efforts to liberalize state abortion law.[4] Foery retired as Bishop on August 4, 1970, after nearly thirty-three years of service.[3] On that same date, he was named Titular Bishop of Misenum, a post which he later resigned on the following December 31.[3] He died at the age of 87, and is buried at St. Mary's Cemetery in DeWitt.[4] Le Moyne College, a Jesuit college in Syracuse, houses an upperclassman dormitory -- Foery Hall—named after the former Bishop.
