It’s easy and tempting to say nice things about someone after he or she
passes away. In the case of just-deceased Alaska Catholic Archbishop
Francis Hurley, however, we hope Catholic officials are careful about
overdoing it.
Praising him, we in the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests (SNAP) fear, rubs even more salt into the already-deep and often still-fresh wounds of hundreds of Alaskans who were sexually abused by priests during Hurley’s tenure, and thousands of parishioners who were betrayed by decisions Hurley made.
