Craig O'Connor of Providence made a valid point about being
able to make on- line comments in the Providence Journal only via Face
Book membership ( Letters, Feb. 6, " No Fan of Facebook ") . I rarely
care to waste time with the on-line circus anymore. But in a recent
letter( " America's Moral Catastrophe " , Jan. 27 ) I had to mention
the ghastly condition of my mentally ill brother's body when my sister
and I were bringing him a lithium refill. A certain Dana commented -
not foolishly- that poor Ray's condition suggested a neglectful family.
Nothing could be further from the truth. But I am still awaiting the
autopsy report for some explanation for this horror. Also, a few more
lines could have " humanized " poor ,dear Ray. He was a devout Catholic
to the end - not unmindful of the meaning of Ash Wednesday. May he rest
in peace !
But I could not reply to Dana's
reasonable comment. I do belong to the 20th century. I still remember
handwritten letters -to-the- editor.
