Reminds me of a friend whose father-in-law would eat Christmas and other holiday meals in the barn with the cows rather than sit at the table with a non-Catholic.I wonder where he would have eaten his meals if my friend had been gay. I have fond memories of you and Craig,your parents and Aunt Lily coming to the farm at Lancaster.You two were just "too cute" as Grandma MacPherson used too say.I don`t remember the girls.I think one was a baby and last one wasn`t born yet. It sounds like Craig did wonderful things with his life and touched many people.I`m glad I found this blog.

Funny, that's what (liberal) Protestants say to (recovering) Catholics. I will always believe that our greatest hope is to learn from one another's experiences, adopt what works for us, and do our small part to make it easier for those coming along behind us. (That's probably something Mom taught me, too.) :) “I never realized how easy it is to be Jewish… we’re SO liberal, sometimes too liberal for me but it’s a lot easier.”
