For my dear Uncle, who passed away early this morning, alone.

Please pray for his soul, as in life he seemed to endure one tragedy after another. Surviving his wife (of 50 + years) death, surviving the death of three of his four grown children, who all tragically died within such a short period of time, one by suicide, with my uncle in the room.

Please pray for him, for he became disillusioned with God, the Catholic Church, and distanced himself in solitude.

Please pray for his daughter, my cousin, who is the sole survivor now of the immediate family, and who is also struggling with her own lot in life with her new family.

It is so sad. So sad.

He was a good, good man. A loving husband, good father, son, brother, and friend.
