Re: Saints lose a great fan today.
There is absolutely nothing selfish, narcissistic, or otherwise questionable
about your post. (You must not look at FB, im guessing.) I know I can speak for everyone on the Board in offering you deep condolences, and also, we thank you for sharing a bit about your mother. Please share more, if you like. I am, personally, fascinated by Louisiana, and its people, and I find it to be our most romantic state. I hope you and your family find comfort as much as possible, and hopefully, talking about her to fellow posters here can have a bit of a healing for you. Peace, brother. |

Re: Saints lose a great fan today.
So, the Mass for mom and reception was today. Nice to have family in from so far away. I got to read a passage at the mass:
A reading from the Letter of Saint Paul to the Romans Brothers and sisters: Are you unaware that we who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were indeed buried with him through baptism into death, so that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life. For if we have grown into union with him through a death like his, we shall also be united with him in the resurrection. We know that our old self was crucified with him, so that our sinful body might be done away with, that we might no longer be in slavery to sin. For a dead person has been absolved from sin. If, then, we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him. We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more; death no longer has power over him. The word of the Lord. |
You think you know, but you don’t know...and you never will! Coach Jim Mora

Re: Saints lose a great fan today.
Hey all. Gonna revisit the thread and relay another quick story about my mom and aunt. My Aunt June said at my Mom’s memorial that, although they were identical in appearance, they had a key difference; Mom was smarter and June was a better athlete. In fact when they were in highschool my Mom took June’s math final and June took my Mom’s swimming requirement to graduate!
They both loved the Saints and cooked a mean gumbo! (Mom’s was better). |
