[narses]

Let me add that my admiration for you is huge. You stayed and fought,I took my family into a lifeboat. God may well rebuke me soundly for that choice, but in my book, you are a hero.

Here, sadly read this and weep.

[Siobhan]

You are still one of my heroes, narses, because you fulfilled your obligation to protect your family. God sees, knows, understands, and blesses. I have this on good authority of the holiest Carmelite priest I have ever known.

And you, dearest NYer, you are a sainted soul among us, dear to me in my prayers. Since news of Fr. Minkler's death I have asked the intercession of many saints on your behalf, and I have also asked my Da to pray for you and for an unmasking of the evil in Albany with Bishop Hubbard (and also with Bishop Clark).
