Dear Mom,

We love you so much. In time we will see each other again and enjoy together the loving arms of Our Blessed Lord and His Mother. Forever is not enough time to enjoy the love and happiness of heaven! This is not a “goodbye,” but a “see you soon,” and even though our earthly hearts ache at the thought of parting, our souls rejoice in the reunion to come.

Rosary will be held at 5:30 p.m. Friday, May 21, 2010, and funeral Mass at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 22, 2010, both at Immaculate Conception Church in Post Falls.
