Monsignor J. Jerome Boxleitner is celebrating his retirement from Catholic Charities today. The Governor and other top political officials are in attendance offering their congratulations to a man who took at fledgling adoption organization and turned it into a $28 million dollar charity that helps the homeless, immigrants, and countless other people living on the edge. Boxleitner didn't accomplish all this without stepping on some toes. He is well known for his frank opinions on social issues, but he is also quite adept at enlisting people's help for his cause. Boxleitner says his greatest accomplishment has been sensitizing people to the plight of the less fortunate. But he says unfortunately that plight is no easier in today's robust economy than it was 20 or 30 years ago.
