This morning, after the 8:30 a.m. school Mass, I went next door to the funeral home to meet some friends in order to plan the funeral for their husband/father next week.
I have known this family -forever-. Now, when I say forever, I mean a really long time. Like my later years in high school long.
It was sad thinking about the passing of someone I’ve known so long but, at the same time, the faith of the family is strong and they will definitely be celebrating the faith of their husband/father at the funeral.
That is what helps us navigate the pitfalls of this world, knowing that a much better world awaits us all.
