Not sure what to say?

Sorry for the loss of the late Father McGinty. Do you know how one can get hold of his work "The genesis of Nostra Aetate's statement on the Jewish people: a study of the development of a positive attitude toward the Jewish people in the Catholic Church in the USA" ? Thank you and sorry to use this guest book to ask this question.

Sorry that I did not graduate from the Prep but attended 3 years 61-63. Fr. McGinty was one of the few people in my life, at that time, who projected a "fear" in most students . He was not a harsh person but did instill respect . Reflecting back , he was a"cool" guy

In1968 I broke my wrist and after which one day walking home after the normal ell ride, my books started to fall, I reached for them and the entire thing popped out. My parents had the wisdom to take me back to St. Joseph's hospital. You and Fr. O'Connel Visited me after the operation where I stayed 1 week. You both taught me what kindness, diligence and leadership MEAN. Remain blessed. Dennis F. Jordan
