Albert Pratcavage

My sweet brother, Albert Pratcavage, passed away May 1, 2017. He was loving, kind and giving to everyone. Albert loved animals, art, music and he volunteered at the Whittier Senior Center in California for 20 years. While Albert did have a disability, he never let it hold him down. He was unable to work a traditional job, but he managed to keep busy. Albert believed in keeping busy. He had a fear of traveling, and he always wanted to know more people on the reservation and his Lithuanian relatives in Pennsylvania, but he just couldn’t connect.

He spent his last year in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, with the assistance of nursing staff. While there, he made friends, and even started a cooking class. Albert loved all the friendly people he could meet.

Albert’s family includes Vibiana Pratcavage, James Baylie Pratcavage, Juliana SiJohn, and the whole reservation of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

English Funeral Chapel has been entrusted with the arrangements. Please sign his online memorial at www.EnglishFuneralChapel.com.

“My sweet, sweet brother, I love you so much and my heart will ache for the rest of my life.” — Vibiana

Saint Kateri Tekakwitha Prayer

O Saint Kateri, Lily of the Mohawks,

Your love for Jesus,

So strong, so steadfast,

Grant that we may become like you.

Your short and painful life

Showed us your strength and humility.

Grant that we may become

Forever humble like you.

Like the bright and shining stars at night,

We pray that your light

May forever shine down upon us,

Giving light, hope, peacefulness

And serenity in our darkest moments.

Fill our hearts, Saint Kateri Tekakwitha

With your same love for Jesus

And grant us your strength and courage

To become one like you in Heaven.

Amen

Pray: One Our Father

One Hail Mary

One Glory Be
