Not for *him*. :*)
He’ll get to touch the face of God!

Prayers going up for his family and friends.

Prayers for Fr. Neuhaus.

"I will forever associate Father Niehaus with my conversion.

Me too, Miss Marple. It was his conversion, and his explanation of it in First Things, that started me thinking about my own Tiber River swim.

[silverleaf]

everything is ready now- and has been for a while.
What a remarkable man

Richard John Neuhaus, 1936–2009 By Joseph Bottum

Fr. Richard John Neuhaus slipped away today, January 8, shortly before 10 o’clock, at the age of seventy-two. He never recovered from the weakness that sent him to the hospital the day after Christmas, caused by a series of side effects from the cancer he was suffering. He lost consciousness Tuesday evening after a collapse in his heart rate, and the next day, in the company of friends, he died. . . .

Oh, dear.
