Something to cheer in an era of greed
Burt Constable's column in the March 3 edition renewed my faith in humanity.
At a time when everyone seems to sue someone for any slight hurt, the Sullivan family decided instead to use their son's death as an opportunity to make the world a better place. Oh, that more of us would follow their example.
Rather than drag an esteemed university through a long, costly legal battle, they chose to establish Horizons for Youth, which will long outlive any monetary gain they might have received had they successfully sued Notre Dame. Thank you to the whole Sullivan family for giving us someone to cheer in this time of greed and divisiveness. May God bless you all.
