Fr. Robert Araujo, S.J., R.I.P.
Our dear friend -- a gentle interlocutor, a caring teaching, a careful teacher, a good priest -- Fr. Araujo died yesterday. There will be time, I hope, to return to, and to think about again, some of the many, many thoughtful papers and posts through which he taught, pushed, and enlightened us. I'd encourage readers to re-read the inspiring "goodbye" he posted here last August, when he went into hospice care. And for those unfamiliar with his story, and with the range of his scholarship, here is the link to his faculty web page at Loyola. Finally (for now), let me repost the announcement, from a few days ago, of an in-the-works conference and volume in his honor.
Requiem aeternam dona ei, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace. Amen.
