A statue of the late Rev. Patrick Peyton at the Saint Peter's Cathedral Prayer Garden in Scranton. The young Irish immigrant who arrived in Scranton and found work as a custodian at St. Peter's Cathedral in 1928 could not have known he was about to embark on a path that would make him one of the most influential and beloved Roman Catholic priests of the 20th century. Ninety years later, that road has led the late Rev. Patrick Peyton, C.S.C., to the threshold of sainthood.(Butch Comegys/The Times & Tribune via AP)
