Whenever and wherever we would meet, John and I would regale each other with our stories of life on 27th St., St. Bridget's, Prep, South Omaha, St. Joe's Hospital, and all things Catholic, medical, or Omaha. I knew him to be a good man, good doctor, and I'm saddened by his loss. My condolences to the family.
