Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Our dear friend's brother John Ripley died this weekend. He was a true American hero and will be greatly missed. Please pray for his family and especially his sister Susie.

Here is a little bit more information about him. He was truly an incredible man. A legend in the Marines. And well loved by his family!

I am so sorry, Hollee! Praying for the repose of his soul, and for comfort, peace and strength for his family and all who miss him and mourn his loss.

   I cannot imagine their grief!

I will pray for his soul and for Our Lord to comfort all those left behind here that love him and miss him so dearly.

May his soul, and all the souls of the faithful departed, rest in peace.
