Daughter of Dorothy Day dies

Daughter of Dorothy Day dies

H/T: Catholic Anarchy

The Christian Radical reported today that Tamar Hennessey, the daughter of Dorothy Day, died today after recently suffering a stroke. The Radical also passed along this 2003 NCR article about Tamar.

The NCR article that Michael linked to above is excellent. I had always been curious about Tamar and how she felt as a woman who was actively part of the Catholic Worker Movement but most importantly how she felt about her mother who was so active in the Church.  It is a very interesting article, so I would recommend you to read it. May Tamar rest in peace.
