Dear Lord, relying on your promises to us, I turn to you in trust that my mother is with you, and that she is enjoying your loving embrace. You alone know how she loved the best she could, and how she faithfully endured the struggles that she faced. You know the graces you gave her, and you know the grace she was for me and all of her children. For all the ways you truly loved her, please reward her, Lord. May she enjoy the communion with all her family and friends who are with you. ...
