As I recall as it's some time ago, he was one of the camera operators and I was part of a group that went down to the WJW 8 studios a few times when they taped the Mass For Shut-Ins. The tapings were on a Friday or Saturday evening and he and the other crew had to make sure that it fit into the approximately half hour time frame using a large counter. Some priests talked a bit too much and then the ending was cut off!Did some work with him. One of the nicest people you would ever want to know. RIP.
Saw it last night - great stuff.Fox 8 will have an hour long commercial free tribute, Friday January 31 at 11 PM.

The "Sunday Morning Chills" skit (a takeoff on Saturday Night Fever) is still a classic nearly 50 years later.
