Thank you for sharing this Suzanne. LeeAnn and her dc have been very much in our hearts and in our prayers. What a thoughtful and healing gesture for their family to place flowers in such a meaningful way on David's grave. We have placed luminaries and flowers on an ever-growing number of family graves, at Christmas and other occasions, and it has always brought such healing balm for our souls. May the Lord continue to comfort and bless this dear family...may His gracious Hand be upon them at all times.

Milestones hurt - everything a family does for the first time without their loved one hurts. And anniversaries are hard.
Join me in praying for Leann, Fiona, Helena, Ellie and Ewan tomorrow:
Quote:
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To thee to we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this valley of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus. O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Pray for us, O holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Amen. |
|
|
And for David:
Quote:
De Profundis (Out of the depths)
Out of the depths I cry to You, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice.
Let Your ears be attentive to my voice in supplication.
If You, O Lord, mark iniquities, Lord, who can stand?
But with You is forgiveness, that You may be revered.
I trust in the Lord; my soul trusts in His word.
My soul waits for the Lord more than sentinels wait for the dawn.
More than sentinels wait for the dawn, let Israel wait for the Lord,
For with the Lord is kindness and with Him is plenteous redemption;
And He will redeem Israel from all their iniquities.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord; and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen. |
|
|
I'm certain of David's prayers for his family, and I join my prayers with his.

Prayers for you, anniversaries are so very hard to get through, but much comfort is felt from friends and prayers. My prayer for you is that you feel God's Loving hand on your shoulder through this time.

Thank you, Jen for the reinder.
LeAnn, I was just thinking of you a couple of days ago, and praying for you, I didn't know when the anniversary of your dh death was but thought it was close. May Our Lord and Our Lady hold you, your precious dc, and all who loved your dh close during this time!
