Prayers, please, for the repose of the soul of my husband’s Aunt Marge. The day after she mailed her Christmas cards, she passed away in her sleep. As you can imagine, it wasn’t easy getting her card with its cheery note and her change of address.

The funeral is today.
 
Byzantine Catholic Prayer for the Deceased

O Lord, grant rest to the soul of Your departed servant Aunt Marge in a place of light, a place of green pasture, a place of refreshment, where all pain, sorrow, and sighing have fled away. As a good God Who loves mankind, forgive every sin committed by her, in word or deed or thought, for there is no man who lives and does not sin. For You alone are without sin, Your righteousness is everlasting, and Your Word is truth. Amen.

Prayer for the Grieving

Father of all mercies and God of consolation, You love us eternally and transform the shadows of death into the dawn of life. Look upon our grief; be our refuge and comfort so that our sadness and sorrow may turn into the light and peace of Your Presence. In dying, Your Son destroyed death; in rising, He restored life. Grant that at the end of our earthly pilgrimage we may be found in His company with our brothers and sisters. There, You shall wipe away every tear. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

**Father, source of light in every age,
the virgin conceived and bore Your Son
Who is called Wonderful God,
Prince of Peace.
May her prayer,
the gift of a mother’s love,
be Your people’s joy through all ages.
May her response,
born of a humble heart,
draw Your Spirit to rest on Your people.
Grant this through Christ our Lord.

Amen. **
 
Saint Michael, the archangel, defend us in battle, be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil, may God rebuke him, we humbly pray. And do you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

†

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

What a beautiful story. Thanks for sharing. I think it’s beautiful because she got to send a message to all the folks she loved the most before going to her eternal reward. What a special way to be remembered… sad, but special!

Eternal rest grant unto her, Oh Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May her souls and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

God bless Marge, may her soul rest in peace and may all her family be comforted.

It sounds as if she had a peaceful passing.
