During his 13-year tenure as chief financial officer of the Catholic Diocese of Beaumont\, Chimeno oversaw the financial aspect of St. Anthony’s repairs and renovations. Today\, he serves St. Anthony as lead docent\, sharing the history and symbolism of the Cathedral Basilica with visitors from across the world. \nIn 2022\, Chimeno\, who holds a master’s degree in business administration\, retired as firm administrator for Mehaffy Weber\, P.C. after 14 years of service. His vast community involvement has included board positions for SETX Chapter of the Texas Society of CPAs\, Catholic Charities of Southeast Texas\, Catholic Foundation of the Diocese of Beaumont\, the Emergency Food and Shelter Program\, Some Other Place\, and Lamar University Friends of the Arts. \nMcFaddin-Ward House Museum lectures are admission-free and open to the public\, but space is limited.
