Alice von Hildebrand . . . Catholic Icon . . . Dead at 98

The readers of The Wanderer have been blessed to read the wisdom and the vast understanding of the Catholic faith that Alice Von Hildebrand shared in her columns with the readers of The Wanderer for over four decades. Her contribution to the Church and to the defense of Catholicism is immeasurable. The countless people she touched in her witness to the Catholic faith will not be fully known until the end of time. Her words are even more valuable today as our world continues to distance itself from our Creator. Alice Von Hildebrand a Catholic icon, will truly be missed. May her soul rest in peace. .  __ Joseph Matt  Publisher The Wanderer

Wanderer editor Peggy Moen recalls from conversations with Dr. von Hildebrand that she was a great fan of Pope Benedict XVI, with whom she met personally. Moen also recalls talking to her shortly after the election of Pope Francis, and Dr. von Hildebrand expressed some concern about him, saying that she hoped that the cardinals had picked the right one.
