It is gossip
by Doris Deiner, Sarasota, Fla.Regarding "Geyer's Employment Terminated" (January): Does Steve Geyer’s tragedy need to be spread throughout the whole Mennonite constituency? It seems like gossip to me. Besides, he is a fallen brother who needs love and community if there is even a chance for forgiveness, healing and restoration. What about his family? They are real people, just like you and me.
