Fr. Julian Anitei and family
Dear Fr. Julian,
It is with deep sadness that we have heard about the passing away of your father in law, the respected Professor Dr. Tristram H. Engelhardt (Reader Herman).
Dr. Engelhardt was professor in the Department of Philosophy at Rice University and professor emeritus in the Department of Medicine and the Department of Community Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas.
Dr. Engelhardt is the author, contributor, or editor of numerous books and dozens of peer-reviewed articles, including The Foundations of Bioethics(Oxford), The Foundations of Christian Bioethics (Scrivener), the recent SVS Press release After God: Morality and Bioethics in a Secular Age, and Turning East: Contemporary Philosophers and the Ancient Christian Faith (SVS Press). He was also senior editor of the journal Christian Bioethics and The Journal of Medicine and Philosophy.
On behalf of the priests and faithful of our Romanian Orthodox Metropolia, please accept our sincere condolences. We pray our Lord Jesus Christ to establish his soul where the righteous repose. We assure you and your family of our prayers for the soul of His departed servant Reader Herman.
May God rest his soul in peace!
† Metropolitan Nicolae
