Father Stephen A. Janto, OFM, of Siena College died March, 1975, in Herkimer. He suffered a heart attack while driving back to Albany, after a day with his family here. The funeral was held April 3rd at the college.
Mercy Sister Mary Daniel of St. James, Rochester, reported that her brother had seemed "very much himself" at the Easter Monday gathering to which he had brought two friends. They told her later that on the way back, he paused to rest at the Herkimer Thruway exit, then resumed driving. When he slumped over the wheel, his front seat companion turned off the ignition, stopping the car without further mishap. "We are so glad of that", his sister Mary said. Her brother was taken by ambulance to Herkimer Hospital.
He was born in Clyde 62 years ago. Since 1958, he had been a professor of history at Siena. He was on the history faculty at St. Bonaventure from 1955-1958.
He was a graduate of St. Bonaventure and held a MA degree from the University of Texas and a PhD from the University of Madrid. He wrote many articles on history and religion and was a prolific contributor to the New Catholic Encyclopedia.
During World War II, Father Janto served as an Army Chaplain. He was with the Air Force during the Korean War, and retired from the chaplaincy in 1965 as a Colonel, USAF Reserve.
Surviving besides Sister Mary Daniel are a brother and two other sisters, Mrs. Anthony Pursati and Mrs. John De Lisio, all of Clyde and several nieces and nephews.
