I deeply admire, and fear for, these brave people. Before Americans start complaining about rising gas prices, we should think hard about their courage

A heartfelt tribute from Fr. John Dear: "Paul Farmer was my friend. He should be made a saint—and a doctor of the church." americamagazine.org/faith/2022/02/…

This reflection by @RevJohnDear captures a dimension of Paul Farmer overlooked in most of the tributes. "With Paul Farmer, as with Jesus, death does not get the last word. Life does." americamagazine.org/faith/2022/02/… via @americamag

@MiaFarrow Thanks Mia. We were friends since college, were in the same fraternity together at Duke, did many events together over the years, I'm so devastated.

An inspiring movie about the work of Paul Farmer and Partners in Health is available: Bending the Arc. Streaming on Netflix. bendingthearcfilm.com/about/

May all of heaven welcome my friend Paul Farmer home, and may we all try to be servants of the poor like him.

@KerryKennedyRFK @PIH I'm really devastated. He was my lifelong friend; we were in the fraternity together at Duke....

Heartbroken to hear we lost Paul Farmer. He was a fearless champion for global health-care, bringing access to quality care to those needing it the most. From Rwanda to Haiti, he made a huge difference. We're proud to work w/ RFK HR Laureate Loune Viaud of Haiti, a leader in @PIH

I'm shock over the sudden death of my lifelong friend, Paul Farmer. We were together in a fraternity at Duke, and did several great events together over the decades. Thank you Paul. God bless you forever!
