Tribute to Hilda Buck offers a valuable reminder to see beauty in our world

I’m a little behind in my reading, but this letter is in reference to the May 17 issue of The Criterion. I wanted to say how much I appreciated reading a reflection about the beautiful life of our sister in faith, Hilda Buck, who died in late April at the age of 106.

The story behind Hilda’s reflections for years in the “My Journey to God” feature, written by reporter Natalie Hoefer, offers such a valuable reminder to look deeper to see the beauty in the world.

Thank you, Natalie.

Security worker: Parishes offer kindness, generosity and support at festivals

I am a police officer in Indianapolis, and I have worked off-duty security work for St. Christopher Parish in Indianapolis and Our Lady of Greenwood Parish in Greenwood at their summer festivals.

Knowing that I am getting paid to be there, their kindness, generosity and support to the officers at these events is far and above any compensation we may have received.

They all showed Christ-like behavior and made us feel blessed to be there.

- Scott Davis | Seymour
