My thanks to Sarah Schmidt for letting me know. Reflections on the man and his great contributions to all that we do will be welcome but will have to wait until Humanist reawakens later this month.

Fr. Busa spent a whole morning with me once, talking about his work on Aquinas and the computer studies I was then just beginning to consider on Middle English. I've been lucky enough to meet a number of major scholars -- Fr. Busa was the kindest and among the most helpful I've ever known.
