R.I.P. - Giovannie Eremondi

If you would be so kind as to say a prayer for a friend, it would be much appreciated.

Please pray for the repose of the soul of Giovanni Eremondi, and for our Lord's comfort and consolation for the family. Giovanni has been ill for a long time, and getting progressively more ill, and he passed away gently and peacefully in bed. His wife, Orlene, is a fellow Secular Franciscan, and has been a strong and ready support for him during all his years of illness.

Heavenly Father, may Giovanni be greeted with joy in Your presence, and may he rest in Your peace, and may his family all be aware of the Holy Spirit in their lives and be granted the grace of comfort, peace and the consolation of trust in the redemption given freely by Your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
