Quotes about Jeremiah Francis Shanahan

• There was everything in his character of a good, laborious, and devoted bishop. And look upon him in his ordinary life, in the ordinary intercourse with the world! He was gentleness, his heart was full of love. It warmed with love unto every one. But there was nothing in him of the guile of earth. His heart was pure; he felt the duty of the application of Christian charity to all mankind.
  • William O'Hara, Lives of the Deceased Bishops of the Catholic Church in the United States
