On this day my beloved Grandmother, Pitronella Frederika (Nellie) Weismiller, née Peterson (obit. 1973) would have been 145 years old. My stepfather, Marion Edward Spiller (obit. 1995), the only Dad I ever really knew and equally beloved, would have been 101. May they both rest in peace. They are gone but never forgotten! Minne Evigt! Memory Eternal!
O God, who art thyself at once the Maker and the Redeemer of all thy faithful ones, grant unto the souls of thy servants and handmaids remission of all their sins, making of our entreaties unto our great Father a mean whereby they may have that forgiveness which they have ever hoped for.Who livest and reignest with God the Father in the unity of the Holy Ghost, one God, world without end.
R. Amen
Amen to your prayer, a hearty amen. May God show His mercy to them and may they rest with Him.
ReplyDeleteWe miss our loved ones who precede us. How comforting to believe they are receiving God's mercy. How do people live without this?
