Msgr. Mike Turek has been a priest of the Archdiocese of St. Louis for 50 years, and he was ordained in 1976.  Before retiring and moving to St. Margaret of Scotland, he was the pastor of Christ the King for 10 years while also taking on St. Joseph’s Parish for 2 years.  Although retired, Msgr. Mike is quite active, so you’ll likely see him around the parish often.
