Dear Readers: Today I’m reading an article I wrote for The Catholic Thing in June, 2014, on my father, and his clean ways. He passed away in 1991, when I was only 31 years old, and our daughter Jessica was not yet 3, and Davey hadn’t even been born. But he was the greatest human influence on my life, and I owe him a debt I can never repay. Debra’s father Herb, the ideal father-in-law to me and the ideal grandfather to our children, had a clean heart also, and I trust that the Lord’s promises have been fulfilled in both of them.
We think of our archive as a little treasure trove. Our paid subscribers have on demand access to the entire of Word & Song, many hundreds of entries. For everyone else, there’s always plenty to see here, as well. We hope that all of our readers will revisit and share our posts with others as we continue our mission of reclaiming — one thing at a time — the good, the beautiful, and the true.
