US author and priest Andrew M Greeley died on May 29.
The Irish American priest of the Archdiocese of Chicago was a prolific writer of fiction and non-fiction.
Many of his novels were best sellers.
Greeley feuded with Cardinal Cody of Chicago, whom he called a monster, crazy and "one of the most truly evil men I have ever known".
The late John O'Gorman, a member of the Dominican Order, had read all Andrew Greeley's novels and many of his non-fiction works. John often commented how true they were to the 'real story'.
