In Memory of my brother Bill, who was born Dec 9th, 1943 and died before his 24th birthday. He would have been 64 today had he lived.

Eternal rest grant upon him, and let
perpetual light shine upon him.
May he rest in peace. Amen.

May his soul and all the souls of the faithful departed,
through the Mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
 
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.
I just found this online from the local TV station. It is a news story about my friend, Hank, who was killed on Nov. 30.

Here is the link and watch the video, it really puts things into perspective.
 
this post in remembrance of my brother in law who lost his battle with cancer. It has been 12 years and my heart still aches. It has been my pleasure to serve him by watching over his two sons.

I would like to also post in remembrance of my father in law who passed away two months ago. He was very kind to me and trusted his daughter with me. I pray I can do him right in raising his grandchildren and loving his daughter.
 
Prayers for the soul of a dear friend and for his wife and family…

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.

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

Praying for many I’ve just read about.
But, in particular, I wanted to mention to you, yessisan, that just yesterday, I visited The Church of The Holy Innocents, a church I hadn’t visited since before my mother’s passing in September. She had gone there numerous times even years before I was born and afterward. It has alot of significance, and changed so little since she and I had been there together or alone, so being there yesterday was numbing and heartwrenching.

However, there was something new - a marble memorial in honor of those unborn - with just one large votive candle at the center and statues of Our Lady & St. Joseph on either side of it.

I’d never seen one like that before - and can’t say enough of how admirable it was. I thought of it as I read your sad loss - a holy innocent soul, God Bless him or her - he or she loves you very much and is praying for you.

I pray for the eternal repose of my grandmother who, when she was still alive, taught us her grandchildren how to say the rosary and prayed the rosary with us every night when we were together in her home. My grandmother told us stories about God, Mama Mary and the saints in heaven that we may be inspired by them and become obedient children and become good Christians when we grow up. I miss you dear Lola.

Lord, accept my dear Lola in your abode in heaven.

This I pray in Jesus’ name. Amen.
 
For my friend, Dan, who passed away this week. I hope he is happy in heaven.

Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with thee, blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fuit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary Mother of God pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death, Amen.
 
For a nurse and friend of my boss’s, Constance, who was killed by a reckless driver this morning. May she rest in eternal peace. Also for the driver and her family, that they may recover from this tragedy and know the love of Christ.
