What does SJ mean at the end of this cast members name?

Gerald Walling, S.J.

Doing a little research I found out that he was a Jesuit and IMDB lists his name as just Gerald Walling.

Here are some sites about him.

Obit

Blues Bothers Central

Blog

IMDB


So does SJ have anything to do with him being a Reverend? And if so then we would treat that as an honorific like for military with the branch of service at the end like USMC?

It stands for Society of Jesus and means that he's a Jesuit priest. Treating it as an honorific sounds right.
