    To the family and friends, please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your dear love one. The Bible assures us that our Heavenly Father, Jehovah God, is aware of our pain and he is near to the brokenhearted(Psalms 83:18; Psalms 34:18). We are also given the promise that there will be a Resurrection and that God will bring an end to Death forever( John 5:28,29; Revelation 21:3,4). It is my hope that the power of God’s word will help to ease your sorrow as you cherish the loving memories you shared together.

    Sister Mary Helen’s family and loved ones. I’m just learning of her passing now. She was a treasure to our family for many years when she was with St. Catherine’s parish in Glenview, IL. She was my mother-in-law Mary Lou’s dear friend so we spent a lot of time with Sister. She was in charge of Bingo nights and there was never saying no to her when she asked for help. I have a few fond memories with Sister. One is when she and Mary Lou and I went to our WI property together. And another was when we attended Christ Renews His Parish, a weekend retreat for the ladies of the parish. I loved her dearly and will miss her but it’s with joy in my heart that she’s “home”.
