Blessed are you among all women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, mother of God, please pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

I want to remember my grandmother that passed 10/22/07. She was having trouble with her heart, and had a angioplasty which went wonderfully. After 2 days she had a big heart attack and died.

My grandmother Ana Dejesus-Sotomajor is remembered by her 16 children and hundreds of grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was our leader by side our lord. I don’t know how can I feel the emptyness in our hearts. 😦

I know that she is with our lord, but we miss her dearly.

I love you grandmom!
Te amor mucho abuela para siempre!

God Bless,

Gladys

Once again, the day that my mother passed away is here. (She was the reason why I started this thread over 2 years ago).

Mom, We Miss You and Pray for us in union with Our Lord!

Mom loved Pineapple Upside Down cake and coconut macaroons.

My father found my mother had passed away in her sleep. (This was at 6:15AM). I got the news just after 6:30AM).

Today I remember mom with a heavy heart.
 
In memory of my sister, Teresa Nicole Cazalas, who died in a freak car accident 20 years ago today. She was 18 years old and I was 16.

I smile when I think that she and her nephew, my little boy, are together in heaven.

Thank you God for your many blessings.

The thought of death has always been difficult for me. It must be for everyone. The most trying time of my life was the occasion of my dear mother’s passing. She suffered terribly before that time and her dying consisted of many of the moral dilemmas of our time. But that is for a different thread I quess.

God, in his infinite wisdom, asked a lot of mom. She responded with generosity, grace, and most of all faith. The church in her hometown benefited much from her generous labors. Most of all, as I reflect back, it is her 9 children who are the ultimate beneficiaries. The sorrow in me grows when I think of what an ungrateful child I have been.

Mom, in heaven with God, forgive this unthinking child. Know that I think and ask God to be infinitely generous with you.

Christ, the son of God, born of the Blessed Virgin Mary, mother of God, in your dying you destroyed our death and in you rising you restored us to eternal life. Amen
 
I will pray for you love one in the daily mass. In my life I always pray for the conversion of the sinners and salvation of the dying, also for the Faithfully Departed. Lost your love one is painful. But if you bear that suffering to share with Jesus’s pain . You will get the crown later in eternal life. May God take care you.
Love in Jesus

My darling husband Lawrence died suddenly and unexpectedly on the 2nd.of October this year, he was only 56. A great guy.He supported me and our five children unstintingly and always with good humour and great kindness. He worked abroad alot although his main office was here in Scotland and he was in Aberdeen when he died. He looked forward to the time when he could slow down a little and begin to enjoy being at home much more often. However 4 of our kids are still at University and he knew it would be sometime before he could think of himself. I absolutely believe that the Lord has been merciful to him and that he is indeed with Him now.
I thank God for having created Lawrence and for all the good and selfless things that this dear husband and father did for us - all God inspired.

Eternal rest grant unto him o Lord and let Your perpetual light shine upon darling Lawrence.
May his soul and all the souls of those who died in Your friendship, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
 
Hi i justed wanted to share how i feel and just say a little prayer. im sorry if this is in the wrong section .

Dear God ,
i really missed my dad who left my mom when i was 12 and lived in the states . just before my major primary school exam. i prayed really hard for him to come back but those prayers were never answered . the same year on christmas i recieved a present from him . i know this might seem over sensitive but upon seeing that it was some chinese present i was furious i threw the toy away . i knew it was not from my dad but the woman he left my mom for. recently he came back , he brought his new wife with him . he wanted to bring us to malaysia for a day and drive back to singapore . i was elated . at last i could spend time with my dad . my mother and sister were both against it . but in the end my sister and i went for the trip . i enjoyed myself despite having to travell and even talk to the woman who destroyed my family . just this morning my dad went back to the states i really missed him . i hope god will answer my prayer and bring him back. im sure mom will forgive him no matter what . PLEASE COME HOME DAD !
 
This is just barely new to my own ears and heart, but yet another young man in my life has passed away…vilently, yet with much honor. His name is Michael Shane Day. He was 20 years old, and just over the past year or so, had been turning his life around. He had a wonderful relationship with his father respectfully, but was now a young adult, and the bonding had been deeper. He was recently working for his father, and seeing them together more often was very special to all who had seen Michael grow up.

Confused, and a young child within a divorce, and going back and forth led him to wander a few paths with frustration, and a few crowds we would pray deeply for. On November 10th, this month, he was stabbed out side of a bar trying to come to the aid of his frend who was attacked with a knife. Young Michael did not see the knife comming in his direction and was stabbed in the back severing a main artery to the heart.

Stumbeling and trying to reach a near by police cruiser for help, he collapsed to the ground and died shortly afterwards. So much care was given to the safety of his young friend, and disreguard for his own safety. He simply did the right thing, and because of this, his friend is wounded, but alive today.

The funeral was on Thursday passed, and the young adults/friends/family mourners had a difficult time keeping their tears and cries concieled. All i could see was my young boy who had died three years prior to this nearly 19 years of age, is the life, gone from us…Gods plan that is sooo hard to see, but we must trust, that he called them both home for a better purpose.

Please pray for not only the souls of the young children, but for the ones left behind. Pray they find our lords peace and gift to endure.

Amen

In Loving Memory of Gabriel Isaac Anzalone on what would be his fourth birthday. Happy Birthday my little man.

Love,

Mommy
 
This is in Memory of Claudia Baker, a woman who, over the past few years, became a second mother to me. She died suddenly last Thursday from an aggressive lukemia. No one (including Claudia) knew she was sick until last week.

Eternal rest grant unto her o Lord and let Your perpetual light shine upon Claudia. May her soul and all the souls of those who died in Your friendship, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
 
I don’t know if I posted in this thread already.
But this post / prayer is for my mother, Emma, who passed away on September 6 - 12 weeks tonight, at age 99. Her 100th birthday was November 20th.

She was my mother, my Catholic educator (long before First Holy Communion instructions), and my rock. She raised me alone, and she was the greatest gift God gave me next to my own soul. Without ‘my rock’ to advise me, I’ve crumbled in making decisions for her, spiritually and temporally as she neared her end. Life is miserable without ‘my rock’ to console me while I ponder these decisions now and where her soul is - something I had not anticipated would happen in grieving her.

I’ve come to the conclusion, after her death, that her soul was as valuable to me - as my own soul. May I have done the right things for her, and particularly may she rest in God’s Eternal Peace, and may my tortured mind and soul find peace in the knowledge that she is with God in Heaven.

For these requests I pray -
and thank you -

Yesterday I attened he wake of one of my high school classmates. Hank was a very loving, thoughful and a man with integrity. The manner in which he died was unexpected, tragid and outright ironic. Hank was killed by a drunk driver and Hank did not drink.

The wake was emotional. His five kids sat quiet, emotional drawn and still in total shock. To understand why this is so tragic, here is the story at appeared in our local paper.

We will remember youHank and your family will not be forgotten!

May the souls of the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
 
****O God, Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Wounds of Our Lord, Jesus Christ,
to heal the wounds of our souls.

My Jesus, pardon and mercy through the merits of Thy Holy Wounds.

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