Please pray for the soul of Kim McWhirter, Catholic homeschooling mother of 8 children who died early Saturday morning from complications from the flu. Please also keep her husband and family in your prayers.
All the dads/husbands in our parish are deeply disturbed by this death - it was so sudden and unexpected. It hits a little close to home.
Funeral is Thursday.
God bless
Margot

Margot, that is particularly sad news, were Kim's children very young? Praying for her soul and her family that must be devasted by her loss.

This is heartbreaking, Margot!
We will certainly pray for the repose of Kim's soul, and especially that Our Lord will tenderly comfort her sweet and sorrowing family. How painful this must be for all of them...for all of you.
Many prayers coming.

Oh Margot, I'm so sorry. Eternal rest grant unto Kim O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon her. I'm praying for all who love her and are carrying the cross of such a tragic, sudden death.
Love,

So sad to hear that the children were so young, I imagine that the funeral was today (we are ahead of time here) continuing to pray for her soul and for her family.

Praying. That news came to us here via FSSP priests. We are so saddened and disturbed by the suddenness of it.
