I’m sorry to hear this. He was a good man.

With the saints give rest.

If you recall, Cardinal George was the one who famously said:

“I expect to die in bed, my successor will die in prison and his successor will die a martyr in the public square. His successor will pick up the shards of a ruined society and slowly help rebuild civilization, as the church has done so often in human history.”

Requiescat in pace, Eminance.
