The 2017 Laetare Medalist, Rev. Gregory J. Boyle, S.J.

"Everything is a gift, you know?" he says, speaking of the pictures that often are placed on his walls by someone else. "They're folks...baptisms...pictures of folks I've had to bury."
G pauses at a photo near the ceiling of a young man in a wheelchair. "Just buried him last week. He was a sweetheart, that kid."
