In Memoriam

Friday, May 27, 2011

A friend and mentor of mine tragically passed away last Sunday. His death was a complete shock and an utter tragedy. He was a great man who mentored and counseled an untold number of college students. He will be greatly missed.

His funeral is today, and in honor of his passing I post the lyrics and a video of "In Paradisum." This chant is frequently the concluding refrain of a Musical Requiem.


May Angels lead you into paradise;
may the Martyrs receive you at your coming
and lead you to the holy city of Jerusalem.
May a choir of Angels receive you,
and with Lazarus, who once was poor, may you have eternal rest.
