Dot, Our Dear Lord must have a special place waiting for you in Heaven. Upon relieving you so many times at midnight in the Adoration Chapel, for some reason you left me feeling younger and more optimistic! Thanks for all your love and prayers. May God give you the ways to love us even more from Heaven.
