apparently have no shame.
They justify there actions and statements by believing they have worked hard and deserve all they have.
Was there any accounting for bad weather or other circumstances, other then

Many would choose to not drive in snow, for instance, or to even walk in snow. Certainly, older persons would consider those circumstances good reason to not attend on a given date.
Sweet, kind friend that was.
Sad occasion, and the beautiful song would have me - or most anyone- in tears at the death of a child.
The real pity is that this man was ever ordained in the first place.
It they had refused to ordain him, the diocese wouldn't be dealing with this for probably the rest of the man's life, not to mention the pain of his victims, and the monetary price to paid from the offerings of people of good will.

When I was a youngster we occasionally cared for a neighbor's parrot when she traveled. It was mildly interesting.
I would never spend the whole day housecleaning.
I just don't think housecleaning is worth that much of my time and energy.
I must have come in late; there's obviously more to this story than the few sentences in the OP.
Very interesting information. I'll pass it along. nt
