Fr Daniel Boyd

Fr Boyd was the only Parish Priest of St Dominic's.
He was already well known to parishioners from his time in St Machan's.
The 18th March 2011 will be the 50th aniversary of his ordination.
I am still gathering information on Fr Boyd - can you help?

Fr Boyd on holiday in Majorca.

Fr Boyd had a passion for airplanes and trains and on holidays would often chose a hotel near an airport.
Scooters are a popular way of getting around Rome, and while studying there, he learnt to use a scooter.
The scooter, pictured below, is believed to be Fr Boyd's
