His friends and family are keeping vigil and he was administered last rites shortly after midnight. Fr. George Rutler, who gave him the Catholic Sacrament, says that “he is not expected to live long” and suggests “that it is appropriate that prayers be offered for a holy death.”
Random reflections and contemplative thoughts, spiritual insights and humorous anecdotes, fickle film reviews and rambling music musings, occasional (okay, more than occasional) societal and political rants, and a whole lot more... all from the point of view of a humble, constitutional, common sense, conservative, Catholic, work-in-progress kinda guy who never gives up hope, because to be without hope is to become selfish.

Prayers for Fr. Neuhaus!!!
Rocco @ Whispers has a disheartening post (via NRO's The Corner) that Fr. Neuhaus (Editor-in-Chief of First Things) appears to be on his deathbed, having received Last Rites shortly after midnight this early morning.
