Wherever he went, children flocked to him and he never tried to discourage them from surrounding him. He genuinely loved kids and felt that he had to do whatever he could to help those children who were in need. Although he may not have always enjoyed public appearances, he never turned down a request to visit or help kids. He made countless visits to children in hospitals and orphanages, and always did what was asked of him to help charitable causes associated with children. This even included St. Mary's. (The reformatory and orphanage where he was raised from age 7 on.) He never tried to hide his roots and difficult childhood, and once he became established he did much to help St. Mary's and the Xaverian Brothers who ran it.
