>>>I like this guy.
>>>
>>>Another one I liked, local, was Cardinal Joseph Bernardin. Joseph Cardinal Bernardin, I guess it's said officially. He was a man of the people. He kept the pomp and circumstance to a minimum. One of the details I liked was how he was with his mother. She had dementia and died in a nursing home. She always asked him what he was doing. Still working for the church, mom. He never told her he was a cardinal.
>>
>>Agreed, Mike. Bernadin was a good one.
>>Another one is O'Malley in Boston.
>>
>>On the other hand most of them just don't get it.
>>We got a new bishop recently in Trenton.
>>Trenton, like many former manufacturing cities, is ridden with decay, crime and poverty.
>>Rather than keep his residence in Trenton, where the diocesan residence has been since its inception, this guy bought a house in Princeton, saying that he felt better "entertaining guests" there.
>
>>I can't imagine Francis doing that.
>
>There are some bad priests, lord knows. The rules they have to live by must be a challenge.
>
>My wife was Catholic and our daughters were raised in the Catholic faith. I spent a good deal of time in a Catholic church, St. Gertrude in Chicago. The priest, Father Bill, was a prince among men. There was a recent funeral of a notable parishioner and I drove down to be at her service. I was pleased to see that Fr. Bill is still among us.

I couldn't find a way to attach it to a UT message so just emailed it to you.
