Help us to honor those we love but see no longer by how we live our lives. Forgiving God. May we take the experiences and formation that they gave us through their love and action to love more fully. May we live our lives knowing that they live on through us. Let us remember that our lives are far better because they were a part of our lives. Let us look to the day when we are reunited with them. May your blessings be upon us now and always. Amen
