I received an email regarding our 25th class reunion at Mount St. Mary's. I began reflecting on all of my experiences at the Mount which quickly brought me to reflecting on the friendships made and those lost. Still thinking of you Jim. Continue to rest in peace my friend.

My deepest sympathy to the family of Fr. Joseph Sheehan. I met Jim while I initiated my philosophy studies at Seton Hall University. The next time I met him was when I was sent to the Cathedral of Newark to do a Carmelite Mission Appeal for my province - The North American Province of St. Elias, Middletown, NY. I was received at the Cathedral with great hospitality by Jim and the Vocations Director of the Diocese then, whose name now escapes me. I was thinking of Jim today, September 28,...

I was extremely honored to know MSGR. Sheehan. I was an Altar Server at St. John's Bergenfield when I met him. From day one, he inspired me. He always had a smile on his face.

There was one time when he told me he was asked to give mass at a hotel for the Jacksonville Jaguars football team. I convinced him that I...

Dear Sheehan Family:
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. While I didn't personally know Fr. Jim, I feel, through his family and comments at the Mass, that I had the priviledge of sharing a small part of his life. He is now in the hands of his and our Boss. While it is a mystery to us, God knows why He called Jimmy and what new role Jimmy will serve. God Bless all of you

Please accept my deepest sympathy and condolences to the Sheehan family and to the staff and friends of the Archdiocese of Newark. I had the pleasure to work with Msgr. Jim in the Archbishop's office at the Archdiocese of Newark. He was always very thoughtful in his work, word and deed. I was most impressed by his intelligence which made him very mature beyond his years. He always had a kind word for all he came in contact with and his humour and laughter brightened the day. Also, he had...
