The journey's over

I heard about it on Monday evening but the details were not made public until Tuesday morning.  After almost 95 years of life spent here on earth, Juliette Plouffe, the mother of Bishop Jean-Louis Plouffe has finally completed her journey Home.

I had the pleasure to meet Mme Plouffe a few times during her visits with her son, however that was many years ago now.  In her latter years she was confined by various physical limitations, all of which have lost their control over her now.

May she rejoice now with the angels, reunited with her beloved husband, and awaiting the day when we will see her once again.  May her family, left to mourn, be comforted by the love of our God, and strengthened by the presence of all those who surround them with care and concern.
