A chara, – I was immeasurably moved by the elegance of the eulogies and beauty of the music at the funeral Mass of Seamus Heaney. If he had the bad luck to have been buried from a church in the Diocese of Meath, would we have heard not a single word or note of this? I think the Bishop should clarify how his recent edict would have affected or “improved” the spiritual nature of the ceremony. Silence, in this case, would have been far from golden. – Is mise,
