Hi Friends,
My Uncle Dan passed away on Friday. He was only 57 years old, and they could never find out the cause of his death, which makes it a bit more difficult. His health got steadily worse, and his immune system failed. 
His Funeral Mass is tomorrow, (Monday, August 14th) at 10 a.m. If you wouldn't mind praying for the repose of his soul, we'd treasure your prayers.
He leaves behind four girls who now don't have any living parents. This breaks my heart, as they lost their mom, (my aunt and godmother) 14 years ago, when she was tragically killed by a group of teenagers driving a car while sniffing lighter fluid. This is difficult for them.
Thank you for your prayers. They are a gift to us. May the Lord reward you richly for them. 
With Love,
Tracy

Tracy, how very, very difficult. We will certainly pray for the repose of your Uncle Dan's soul - but also for all those dc who have had so much suffering already. May our Lady and St. Joseph be especially attentive to them now and always and surround them with their loving care and support.

Tracy,
I'm so sorry to hear this. It's even more tragic with the girls having no living parent.
(((Hugs))) and prayers.
May he rest in peace.
