Michelle, sorry to learn about your grandmother’s passing. From the obituary she sounds like she was a hard worker and quite a golfer. Maybe you get your love of sports from her. Sending you a hug and my sympathy to you and your family.

One of the most uplifting things I found after our daughter’s death at age 16 was a quote from the Constitution on the Church (also found in the Catechism paragraph 955) : ” The union of the wayfarers with those who have fallen asleep in Christ IS IN NO WAY INTERRUPTED. Rather it is enhanced by the exchange of spiritual goods”. The world tells you otherwise, but we have personally found it to be true. St Therese confirmed it by saying her real work would begin after her death. Our prayer for you and your family is that you would experience the fullness of this special grace as the Lord carries you through the coming days filled with the fire of his love and peace. May the Lord welcome your mother into paradise. Love and prayer,
Barry and Laraine Kasprow
