Five Person Meme

Catholic Mom tagged me with this. I'm supposed to tag five others, but candidly, I don't know five other Catholic bloggers to tag. So my apologies if I break the rules here a little.

"If you could meet and have a deep conversation with any five people on earth, living or dead, from any time period, who would they be?" (Explaining why is optional.)

Name five people from each of the following categories: Saints, Those in the Process of Being Canonized, Heroes from your native country, Authors/Writers, celebrities.

Five Saints:

1. St. Maximilian Kolbe
2. St. John
3. St. Peter
4. St. Anthony
5. St. Teresa of Avila

Those in the Process of Being Canonized:

1. Pope John Paul II
2. Blessed Ann Cathrine Emerick
3. Blessed Yvette
4. Bishop Fulton Sheen (okay, I don't think he's in the process, but count this as my vote that he should be.)
5. Blessed Mother Teresa

Five U.S. Heroes:

1. Easy Company from WWII (Band of Brothers)
