The story of the Rev. Henry Willenborg, a priest who spent a decade at Our Lady of Angels Seminary in Quincy, and the son he had with a woman who came here 26 years ago to a Roman Catholic retreat to try to mend a trouble marriage aired last week on CNN. Their son, Nathan Halbach, now 22, is dying of cancer.

See the report here.

The story first gained national attention with a front page New York Times article last month. CNN reporter Gary Tuchman was in Quincy filming part of the report, with footage of St. Peter Catholic Church. The woman, Pat Bond, who now lives in a St. Louis suburb, lived in a house at 25th and Maine. Nathan’s baptism, shown at right, took place in St. Peter Catholic Church. Willenborg has been suspended from a parish in Wisconsin.
