Thread Name: Obit: Philip Berrigan-Anti-war activist (Dec 2002)
Subject: RE: Obit: Philip Berrigan - Anti-war activist
I have been thinking a lot about what it is I wanted to say here but cannot really find the words to describe it. We each have several people who influence our lives at critical times, and in my case, Philip Berigan was one of the first outside of my family. I've been thinking of the others as well now and it's hard to describe how all of these people came into my beliefs and what they left behind.

No words are enough for a man of his stature because he leaves us with a legacy so huge that perhaps no words are needed. His own words and actions stand as testimony to a truly devoted life.
