For all those souls for whom prayers have been requested:

Eternal Father, I offer 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 them, O Lord, and let perpetual life shine upon them. May they rest in peace. May their souls, and all the souls of the Faithful Departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
 
For all our beloved dead, especially my grandfather Fred who died this morning:

Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. AMEN.
(Prayer of St. Gertrude the Great)

Please pray for the eternal repose of the soul of my high school classmate Lea Bahena-Gray who went missing April 20th, found dead May 9th in Korea. Her military husband is now under investigation. We still don’t know when her body will be brought back to the Philippines for the wake and burial. She left a daughter from a previous relationship.

Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father’s will. But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not, therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.
-Matt 10:29-31

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and may perpetual light shine upon them. Amen.
 
I think of my dear father, Edmund who died after spending 3 months in ICU after 2 cancer surgeries. Watching Dad waste away was horrible to Mom and all the family.
All that was left was his soul.
Time has passed and healed.
I miss Pop terribly and think of and pray for him daily, several times. I know he rests with the Lord. I do wish I had more precious time with him…
Love the ones you have.

And Gladys, a dear family friend who was like a grandmother.
She was truly an angel…
†Dear Lord,
From You They Came And To
You They Return.
We Thank Thee For Allowing
Us The Grace and Blessing For
Having Had Them In Our Lives.
Wonderful and Merciful Lord
Tell Them We Miss Them and Pray For Them.
Our Hearts Embraced Them Then, Our Hearts Embrace Them Now…
 
For Rita… it’s been over two years. She must be a bright star in Heaven now.

For the soul of a priest who left the Church and practce of his faith. Dear Jesus, I pray that You will have spoken into his heart and soul as he died, and that he welcomed the grace to return to You. Remember the Masses he offered, as prayer for his eternal salvation. Thank You, Jesus
 
I am praying for your loved ones.

Please pray for my Grandmother who passed away this morning. She was surrounded by her loved ones. She lived a long full life and had over 100 kids, grandkids, and great grandkids descend from her.

Thank you.

I am dedicating this one to my Pawpaw

**❤️ Russell G. Graham Sr.❤️ **

This is the letter I wrote to him that was placed into his coffin:

hey paw, i think the last thing i ever did with you was our fishing trip, and i just wanted to let you know that i really miss you. i know that right now your probably celebrating LSU with all the other coonasses up there, or playin cards. mawmaw is being really strong. ever sense you were in the hospital we prayed that we would all have more time with you. you got eight extra blessed years to get to know mackie and syd and graham, but we’re going to miss you more than you can imagine. we are going to have our good days and bad days, but we will always remember the joy you brought to our family. we all used to call you cranky, and said you were really annoying because you lectured us, but you were just lookin out for all of us. well i know that your in heaven with god fishin for squirles (inside joke) i’m going to miss you so much and i can’t wait until the day that all of us are all back together again. i know that while god is workin in our lives your probably leanin over his shoulder tellin him what he should and shouldn’t do like you used to do to us. well i intended to stop writing a long time ago, but i just love you so much, and i wanted to let you know and the best i way i can express my feelings is in writing. well paw i’m gonna go now, but i just want to let you know that we’re all watchin out for mawmaw.

I LOVE YOU PAW-PAW!!!
REST IN PEACE!!!

 
I would like to dedicate this post to Nana.
I will always miss you and I wish I could have known you better.
I feel like I do know you through the story Mom tells me about all the shoes you had, I think I’m fallowing in your footsteps:D I have been thinking about you a lot lately and just thought I would let you know how much I miss you

I would like to dedicate this post to my parents. The first teachers of my Catholic heritage and faith. Thank you for what you did. Dad went to his reward on October 4, 1980 at age 80. Mom went to her eternal reward on March 24, 2003 at age 88. Please God, give each of them a kiss for me.
 
This post is for all those babies I baptized in hospitals on their death bed. Knowing that God used me to help them to his eternal embrace for the totally innocent is a blessing far beyond anything I deserve. May they pray for me always until I meet them again.
 
For those who are in heaven because God used me to get a priest to them for Confession and the Last Sacrament, May they too keep me in their prayers.
 
From my boyhood, for my friend Brent. We were hunting and his shotgun went off hitting him in the neck killing him. Those of us who were with him, got him to the hospital before he died where our local priest was just leaving. He gave him absolution and anointing of the sick before he died May he keep us all in prayer.
 
I would like to dedicate this post to my mother, who died 4 months ago at almost 80 years old. I miss you mom. We used to talk every night while she was in hospital her last month here on earth. I miss that. Now she is with my dad who passed away 11 years ago. I still miss him terribly. I would also like to pray for my young 54 year old friend who is dying of cancer and only has a few months left. May his courage and his spirit continue be uplifted by his faith in God. God Bless.
 
I am with you in prayers. We miss the ones that have been called home but know the Lord loves everyone so. Know they are in heaven my goodness what a wonderful place to be. Know also that you will one day be reunited. Love the Lord with all your heart, be aware this is a wonderful start know the Lord cares and your family will be with Him always. Hope this helps. I have lost two mothers one adoptive and one my birth mom. Lost my brother to heroin and I love him very much too. I grieve but know the Lord is with him. laurel
