Thank you , HC .  At the time those of us who were either in our 30's or 60's  were in a state of amazed shock  .  All we'd ever heard was ,," The Catholic  church will never change . "
So you are more than very welcome !   At first , my father was reluctant and fearful but he entered wholeheartedly into the "changes " by saying that he'd always done what the church told him and he'd keep doing just that .
