To the Members of the Student Body,
On behalf of the Congregation of Holy Cross, I’d like to thank each of you for the ways in which you honored the life of Fr. Theodore Hesburgh, CSC, these past few days. Your late night visits to the Basilica, participation in the wake, funeral Mass, procession to the cemetery and memorial, the touching video produced by NDTV and countless prayers at the Grotto were all beautiful reminders of how fortunate each of us CSCs are to be at a University with such thoughtful and caring students. Please know how grateful we are to each one of you for the ways that you celebrated, honored and loved our brother, Fr. Ted.
In Notre Dame,
Fr. Pete McCormick, CSC
Director of Campus Ministry
