- Notes
- "I want to thank the Rev. Adela Torchia for writing about the loss of her grandson, Gordon, to a drug overdose ('Good night, sweet prince', Sept. 2018, p. 5). ... By sharing her experience and putting a human, identifiable face to this tragedy, she has allowed some of us on the periphery to understand more about those getting swept away in this tsunami of hopelessness. May by talking about this more openly, our society (and the church) will see a way forward to helping save these beautiful young lives".
