Praying our goodbyes

Last night, a novena of rosaries was begun. Over the next eight days (nine including yesterday) the family will gather to pray for the repose of her soul.

In the meanwhile, the arrangements for public viewing, visitation and the other funeral rituals have now been completed:

Visitation for the late Mary Evelyn (Lee) Man-Son-Hing will take place at the Ward Funeral Home (Brampton) on Monday, November 2, 2009 from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm and from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.

The Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at Saint Jerome's church, located at 8530 Chinguacousy Road, Brampton, Ontario beginning at 10:30 am. Following the completion of the Mass, Evelyn's body will be laid to rest at Assumption Cemetery (Mississauga) where her husband Vernon was interred more than a decade ago.

As of Sunday, November 1, the obituary will appear in the Toronto Star, and similar copy has also been published in the printed copy of the Brampton Guardian.

Thinking of you. Prayers were offered for you ad your family. Prayers were also offered to the saints at our Mass this evening. May you find it comforting that you are praying for your grandmother's soul at a time when the world is praying to saints today and for all souls on Monday.
