Jane, I know that your heart must be broken, I am so sorry for your loss. And, dear Francis, my brother I could see the pain in your heart. Please know that I would love to be able to ease the pain but know that only Faith and time can do that. However, we do believe in the unbelievable joy that you will experience one day when we you meet her (and the many others who have gone) in the fullness of the Kingdom. I feel impotent before your suffering but I want you to know that I stand with you both and the whole family and that my prayers and masses are for "Aunt Laura" and for you. Ronnie (Fr. Ronald E. Bonneau, C.Ss.R.)
