He was brilliant. As a college student, I happened to work in the (now long defunct) Schraffts across the street from the old pre-fire St Agnes Church, where he used to preach. They had loudspeakers set up in the street so people who couldn’t get into the church could hear him.

I lived for several years (5) in the area of the old and new St. Agnes! I was a little too young for Cardinal Sheen's tv show but how I loved the sermons at St. Agnes. A very intellectual community in an area of mostly, let's face it, commuters. I was there the day that beautiful, if modest, church burned down.
