One of Catholic Answers’ forums’ prominent members died suddenly of a massive heart attack, leaving behind a wife and family, among many others who will grieve the profound loss. His forum name was brotherhrolf and his Christian name was Leonard.
While many here probably did not know him since he was a Roman Catholic with an affinity for the Latin Mass, I know that this forum’s participants take seriously the need to pray for those who have died, especially during the Fast, and it is my hope that out of Christian charity you will join in a spiritual bouquet that is being organized under my guidance. Here’s a short and sweet explanation of what a spiritual bouquet is if you’re unfamiliar. No money or material goods are being requested–just prayers.
If you would like to participate, please let me know ASAP what you will be doing for this spiritual bouquet. You need to write me by Monday, but the prayers may be offered any time between now and Holy Saturday.

Note that this is a count. For example, if four people in your family all say the Prayer for the Repose of the Dead, you would count all four. The introductory prayers would be listed out (1 Our Father, 1 Trisagion, etc) if said for this intention. You don’t have to, but may specify if the prayers are for his soul or the comfort of his family if you would like.
Any sacrifices, days of fasting, devotions, acts of mercy, whatever would be appropriate. Whatever you feel called to and can do between now and April 3, please offer it. Even one prayer will add up if many people participate.

Prayers would obviously be welcome whether you participate in the spiritual bouquet or not.
Thank you for your charity!
