In my Irish Catholic family there was a custom to exchange Rosary beads amongst the family. The idea was to remember the people you love as you pray. For instance, my grandparents had beads from each other, their siblings, children and grandchildren. As they said their Rosary, the person’s bead reminded them to say that Hail Mary for that person.
It seems to be a custom that has died out in my generation. As I was thinking about it I wondered if the custom was unique to the Irish or maybe just my family.
