Please pray for the repose of the soul of my Grandfather Edwin Mathesius. He died this evening. He was 92 and just entered the church last year. I will miss him.


Thank you so much!


Edited to add:
This is the same grandfather I asked you all to pray for last year:
Grandpa's conversion

Oh, Donna Marie...I do remember praying for your grandfather last year! This is sad news! What a comfort to know that he entered the Church and had access to the beautiful Sacraments of our Church.

I'm praying for the repose of his soul, as well as for your family's comfort during this time of grief.

Praying for the repose of his soul, Donna Marie. I very much remember when you shared his conversion story. Like Jen said, I think it is very comforting to know he had the sacraments of the Church at the time of his death.
