Wheaton, Ill. – A Kalamazoo man is in a dispute with a Roman Catholic diocese over his efforts to install a marker at his mother’s gravesite at a Chicago-area cemetery that proclaims her support for victims of “rapist” priests.
Jack Ruhl says the Roman Catholic Diocese of Joliet will not allow a marker at his mother Marguerite Ridgeway’s gravesite at a cemetery the diocese owns because it includes “explicit language,” The Chicago Tribune reported.
Ruhl wants to install a marker that reads: “She supported priest rapist victims.”
