It's cool news, Father-Bishop Howard knew the students well. I hope he will stay close to young people in Washington.

Νίκος Μιχαηλίδης

Good news for father. The students at Howard knew him intimately, I hope he doesn't forget them now that he's going to be a bishop in Washington.

Γιώργος Βασιλείου

I agree, the father had a good relationship with the students. Let's hope he finds a way to visit them here and there, even as a bishop. Did you meet him at all?

Αντώνης Κωνσταντίνου

Yes, he was on good terms with them, I saw it every Sunday at mass. I hope he finds time to stop by the university, even for a coffee. How did you meet him, George?

Νίκος Αναγνώστου

Yes, I too often saw him after mass talking to students. I hope he finds time for coffee, as you say. I met him last year at a university event, when he came in my truck from Patras for work.
