The most obvious are the events surrounding Conor Murphy's relatively recent diagnosis with leukemia and the remarkable love and support that have been expressed for him.

I suspect there is no other gift for which I am more thankful as I reflect on my days of ministry here at Notre Dame. There is a richness to c our sacramental life and to our shared faith that leaves me speechless with gratitude before God.

Not long from now, I will miss being able to wander out in the middle of any ~ night to spend some time at the Grotto; I will miss the ceaselessly joyful liturgies which grace our beautiful Basilica; I will miss many things, but most of all, I will miss the peo ple.
