Ambulance drop-and-go policies won’t fix anything in the long run and hide the lack of meaningful action. Hundreds of patients each week are dying in association with overcrowding in EDs. How about fixing the actual problem? @RCollEM 1/3

Sang with Ben many times. His voice & talent was simply unbelievable. RIP Ben.

The Cathedral is sad to hear of the death of Ben Thapa. Ben was a Choral Scholar at the Cathedral in the early 2000s, returning as a tenor Lay Clerk from 2019-22. Please continue to pray for the repose of his soul, and keep his family & friends in your prayers during this time.
