Ten years ago today my oldest brother succumbed to the pancreatic cancer that had ravaged his body. After a dissolute life, he died in our sister’s home, surrounded by his loving siblings and our dear parents. He had hours before received last rites and the Apostolic Pardon. I had just the night before concluded my novena to St. Joseph for his happy death. It doesn’t get much happier than that.
Stay confessed.
Eternal rest grant unto Thy servant Richard, O Lord, and may perpetual light shine upon him!
