Pro-life advocate Sharon Rodi was honored by The Catholic Foundation with the St. John Paul II Award Oct. 19 at its annual dinner. Rodi, a retired attorney, received the award from Archbishop Gregory Aymond, who lauded her for her work running a secretarial school for underprivileged women, her legislative lobbying efforts to reverse the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision legalizing abortion and her work helping resettle Vietnamese refugees in the Archdiocese of New Orleans.
