Am I Talking To Somebody? From My Heart To Yours: Father Claude Scrima OFM, His Story and The Love He Inspires. There is pride in being from the North End. Something I can hardly explain, it is intangible, in my blood and inside my soul. But Father Claude is one tangible reason.
Father Claude is probably the most beloved priest the North End has ever known. This book recounts a part of his story. From growing up on Charter Street, to entering a Junior Novitiate in Montreal, to finishing high school at Christopher Columbus and then entering the Franciscans, Father Claude has had many journeys. The many friends and parishioners who adore and admire him and also his wonderful family who love and cherish him, have all come to share remembrances, tributes and stories of Father: Am I Talking To Somebody? From My heart to Yours.

Excerpt: He loved being with people. A familiar sight was to see Father Claude walking the streets of the North End. Everyone knew him and everyone loved him and they would stop to talk to him, hugged him and wished him well. It was a Father Claude Traffic Jam!

He knew most families and would ask about how little "Joey" or "Gina" was doing. A frequent visitor to his parishioners' homes, he would check to see how the infirm and elderly were doing, sit and have a cup of coffee with them and chat. And oh, how he could chat!
