Chuck, I think it would be wonderful if those of us who met him or
read some of his writings about Teilhard wrote to his brother
for sharing with the Jesuit community. Hopefully there is one
in the wings who will continue to present Teilhard's "context in
which our knowledge of science, our sensitivity to human
relationships, and our sense for God could become mutually
coherent." (from Fr King's "Teilhard's Unity of Knowledge" as
presented in "Teilhard in the 21st Century", 2003, The American
Teilhard Association)

Thank you for this information. I met Fr. King once during the Teilhard
celebration at the UN and at Fordham, and had some brief email interaction
with him. He was a genuinely wonderful, warm-hearted person, and will be
missed.
