Rest in Peace, Rosie

Shortly - very shortly - after publishing my last post, I got word that Rosie had gone with God.

She died surrounded by her family, who had just finished saying their family Rosary. Fr. Hildebrand, a Norbertine priest who is currently serving as a chaplain at TAC, said it was the most peaceful and beautiful death he had ever seen.

We love you, beautiful lady.

So. Very. Much.

We will miss you dreadfully. I look forward to joining you in the Heavenly choir, where your lovely voice has been welcomed enthusiastically.



In paradisum deducant te Angeli; in tuo adventu suscipiant te martyres, et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Ierusalem. Chorus angelorum te suscipiat, et cum Lazaro quondam paupere æternam habeas requiem.

(in English)

May angels lead you into paradise; upon your arrival, may the martyrs receive you and lead you to the holy city of Jerusalem. May the ranks of angels receive you, and with Lazarus, once a poor man, may you have eternal rest.
