Will Father Bob get a lavish Funeral like his former boss Pell? The church will probably fast track his sainthood now so they can profit from him #fatherbob

wonder if #DanielAndrews will consider a state funeral for #FatherBob ? i would vote for that - if only to send a message to the catholic church that many of us respect people for what they do, or try to do, NOT based on their rank, or the BS they only pretend to believe.
(at the very least, it might get up Peter Comensoli’s nose)

John Safran, who's had countless collaborations with Father Bob over the years on TV and radio, said this of his recently departed friend:
What was Father Bob like privately? Somehow kinder and funnier than he was publicly. We somehow ‘fought’ nonstop from the moment the record button was pressed in 2004, through documentaries, radio shows and books, right through to filming this year, but we never once fought. More than being kind in broad brushstrokes, he was kind in small ways. When an elderly congregant couldn’t catch the Collingwood matches, he organised tapes from Channel 7 that he would slip to her, along with the Eucharist wafer, during communion. Bob was wise as Buddha. He attracted all manner of outcasts, not all pleasant, but he was open hearted to those people too. I asked him how did this and he said, “You don’t have to like people to love them.” I send condolences and compassion to Bob’s niece Peta who looked after him in his difficult final stretch, and to all his family and friends. When filming, it was an editor’s nightmare to cut from the shot before I'd burst out laughing each time Bob finished a sentence. I never thought Bob would ever stop making me laugh, but with the sad news of today, he finally has.

Vale Father Bob. You were such an inspiration to all of us in Melbourne. I'm not Catholic, yet I admired your commitment to our community. You were a beacon of hope to so many and were always ready to get in there and lend a hand.
I will never forget our lovely, long phone conversation about inter-faith acceptance and your willingness to speak with me with such respect and kindness, despite our polarising faiths.Bless you Father Bob. May you rest in enteral happiness and continue to inspire the people you have left behind. You will be missed so very much 🙏💗

Father Bob Maguire, charity campaigner and Catholic priest, dies aged 88
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-04-19/father-bob-maguire-catholic-priest-dies/101814184Father Bob was down-to-earth, and you could tell he genuinely cared about marginalised people. He moved with the times and spoke with multiple generations younger than him by making the most of ABC TV, JJJ radio, and the internet. He never stopped helping other people, right up to the end. Rest in peace, Bob Maguire.
