The Illinois House and Senate are in session. Loyola University’s Sister Jean (and some players) will be at the Capitol for lawmakers to honor the basketball team’s NCAA tournament run.
I’m told she’s delivering the opening prayer in the Senate today. Expect a packed gallery.

Sister Jean and the Ramblers were a blast of warm sunshine in a cold spring during these very interesting times.

Favoite Sister Jean moment:
Asked what she gave up for Lent, she said “losing.”
At 98, quick with the perfect funny.
