A good man deserving of the recognition.
RIP Fr. Reid…may his influence continue…
A great man along with John Hume, who I personally think is a saint!
Joan you conveniently mentioned John Hume when referring to Fr.Reid. Fr. Alec Reid in a TV interview that Gerry Adams as “statesman” and Fr.Reid regarded “Gerry Adams as one of the best if not the best politicians in Europe.” Do not contaminate for Reid’s memory with innuendos!
…my apology for the missing words in the second sentence…rushing! :-(
Remember receiving a copy of the Downing Street Declaration in the post in the 90′s knowing that Fr Alec was the real architect behind it. As Albert Reynolds & John Major delivered the news in front of a massive Christmas Tree at Number 10, it was a Christmas when people in the north sensed a glimmer of hope for the future.
R.I.P Fr.
RIP Fr. Reid.
Your great legacy to the peace process in Northern Ireland will live on.
Perhaps the progress toward peace & reconciliation, in N Ireland, can give some hope or inspiration to other nations in civil strife or conflict.
