fortunately, years later circumstances presented themselves and my wife and I met him twice...at our first meeting, before we got started that weekday morning, he asked if we had gone to Mass yet...upon learning that we hadn't, he asked if we'd mind joining him in the small chapel adjoining his office there in the Library...without hesitation, we accepted the offer...both my wife and I recited the day's readings and then the rest of the celebration became a blur...afterward, when our business was concluded, he penned a treasured note to our copy of "God, Country, Notre Dame" which we keep safe and secure.
About a year later, we had another meeting and this time I came prepared with the gift of a very fine coffee table book on the SR-71 aircraft, which he had flown in...thank heaven I was able to provide just a scintilla of the joy and pleasure that he had given us. To me, Fr. Ted is a modern saint...I could go on about my reasons, but this is your thread.
Congrats on your memories with Fr. Ted!
