Dear Father Donald,
 
I so well remember a homily on today's Gospel when attending a Mass the year we became, ..., thirty years ago - which says a great deal regarding the effectiveness of the homily presentation! The priest spoke for less than five minutes each Sunday. He began today's homily with a chuckle followed by, "What a question to ask a blind man!" He concluded the homily by enquiring of each of us what obvious question Jesus might have addressed to us, or rather, be addressing to us!
 
Pithy stuff! terse and vigorously expressive!
 
With my love in Our Lord,
William
