Bonus episode: St. Wenceslaus Church was the site of the funeral Mass for Jim Lane, a Marine veteran who was not a parishioner but whom Fr. Chuck anointed after the family contacted him because of his ministry as on-call Catholic clergy chaplain at the Portland Veterans Administration Hospital. Mr. Lane loved to fix and repair things, prompting Fr. Chuck's question, "Leaky Faucets in Heaven?"
