Bishop Fulton Sheen died 30 yrs ago today...

From The Catholic Thing...
On December 9, 1979, Archbishop Fulton Sheen died in the Lord. He was buried beneath the main altar at St. Patrick’s Cathedral, where he had preached for many years. In a nation that still harbored anti-Catholic sentiments, Sheen gave Catholicism a public face that made the Church and its teachings acceptable to millions of Americans.
Archbishop Fulton Sheen, God love you – and pray for us.
