Hoy visité en el hospital a mi amigo sacerdote, P. Ernesto Cardenal, con quien pude conversar unos minutos. Después de haber orado por él, me arrodillé ante su cama y le pedí su bendición como sacerdote de la Iglesia Católica, a lo cual accedió gozoso. ¡Gracias, Ernesto!

The symbolism of Bishop Baez kneeling before Fr. Cardenal is certainly not accidental. It should be noted Baez is not just any auxiliary bishop, he is a recognized leader of the opposition to "Orteganismo". Cardenal has also been an outspoken critic of what Ortega has become.

I appreciate this memorial about my father by @ggrenwald above any I have read today--for his comprehensive review of his bio & history, for his attention to themes generally overlooked about his post-Vietnam life, but particularly for deep appreciation of his human qualities.🙏
