For Father Ted, intorductions are unnecessary, and superlatives are inadequate: we can only offer our gratitude. His courageous deeds, inspiring words and unparalleled acts of bravery and selflessness, have invigorated a generation of pro-life Canadians. He has prayed, protested, and been arrested many times, and still he remains an undaunted champion for the unborn. His conviction is rivaled only by his compassion. He is someone whom we can look to when we think we have done enough, someone to look to when we are assailed by despair. There are innumerable good things to say about him, but on the occasion of his 90th Birthday, we have only this to say to him: Congratulations, and thank you for lifetime of leadership, labour, and love. |
