Hello,

I would just like to ask for prayers for my Friend’s Family and the repose of his soul. He passed away just a few days ago. Today is his visitation. He was only 22 and he died suddenly, and we don’t know what exactly caused it.

Unfortunately, I was volunteering that night in the ER and witnessed the whole ordeal, as they attempted to revive him. I don’t know why I was there to witness a friend die, and it feels very surreal. I’m trying to see why God wanted me there, since I don’t usually volunteer on those nights. That final image of him after they called it will be in my memory forever. It hurts. It was very traumatic.

I just hope this visitation and upcoming funeral will bring a new final image, and one more peaceful and comforting. Work is cooperating right now, but I hope they will let me miss tomorrow. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to keep my composure.

I was told I need to talk to the parents and console them, telling them of the good impact he had on all of us. I can’t imagine how the mother or father are feeling. But I just pray I that I have the strength to tell them.

Peace & Thank You.
 
Praying for your friend and for you after witnessing such a traumatic event it will take time for you to heal.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord,
and let Your perpetual light shine upon him.
May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen.

Lord, please comfort this soul’s family and grant them healing and peace. Thank you, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
 
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen
