New Rochelle, N.Y.: There were two reasons to mourn a heroic death on Good Friday, that sad yet triumphant day Christians noted the death on the cross of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We lost another great Jew, a heroic resident of New York who dedicated his days on Earth to the exposure, capture and bringing to justice of those who would exterminate, marginalize or punish his fellow Jews.
Danvers, Mass.: Jesus has taken some bad press and is in need of a branding makeover. Thus, we have all been subjected to the “He Gets Us” marketing campaign. But the evangelicals behind it do not seem to understand the most basic elements of getting Jesus.
Bronx: As a gainfully employed 63-year-old woman, born and raised in NYC, I thought I had seen it all. Monday gave me an all-new perspective on raising children.

Melville, L.I.: It’s great to have an administration that is not hostile to workers and unions (“Biden and his panel are laboring to increase union membership,” April 27). However, the problem of decreasing union membership will only be solved when the labor movement admits that the failure to organize American workers is theirs. Maybe then they will be willing to make the changes that are necessary.
