My grandfather's baby sister. She was my great Aunt, only a few years older than my mom. Her youngest daughter and I remain good friends as well as cousins. Pray for her, who cared for Aunt Paula since Uncle Reggie's death so many years ago, and for her sister and brothers.

Aunt Paula was like another mother to me, and I loved her dearly. Sadly, fallen away from the Church, I implore God's Mercy. I prayed for Aunt Paula at every Mass. She was in her early 90's.

May perpetual light shine upon her, O Lord, and may the souls of the faithful departed, through the Mercy of God, rest in Peace.

Mary Immaculate, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
St Philomena, pray for us.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, have Mercy on us.

I love you Aunt Paula.

PSALM 129: DE PROFUNDIS

Out of the depths I have cried to Thee, O Lord: * Lord, hear my voice.
Let Thy ears be attentive * to the voice of my supplication. If Thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: * Lord, who shall stand it?
For with Thee there is merciful forgiveness: * and by reason of thy law, I have waited for Thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on His word, * my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
From the morning watch even until night, * let Israel hope in the Lord. Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.
And he shall redeem Israel * from all his iniquities.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.

I'm very sorry for your loss Bill, my prayers and thoughts are with you and for your dear Aunt+

With love in the Immaculata

Dear Bill, so very sorry for your loss.  May God grant mercy and rest to her soul, and comfort to you and your family.

I think it was the Cure of Ars who said to never despair of a soul.  I'm sure all of your good prayers were heard and answered, one way or another.

Dear Bill:

My condolences and prayers for you and Aunt Paula.  Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord and let perpetual Light shine upon her.  God bless you.

Thank you everyone, and thank you for your encouragement. I'm in fl, and will go to NY just for the day on Thursday for the Wake. Thank you for the continuing prayers. My dear Philomena has sent me much consolation today.

Will offer 15 decades for Aunt Paula Bill, with love ++

Eternal rest grant unto,  Paula ,  O Lord let perpetual light shine upon her. May her soul and all the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen

She looked beautiful, absolutely as if she were only sleeping. My cousin told me that shortly before she died, when she was barely able to raise her head from the pillow, Abe suddenly sat up straight and with the sweetest expression on her face and brightest light in her eyes she reached out and slightly above her head, cooing 'ohhhhhhh. Ohhhhhhh". Let us hope that my dear sweet Philomena was there, accompanying Our Blessed Mother.

Thank you for your prayers. I'm sitting in JFK waiting for my trip home. It's been a long day, but I'm so happy I went.

I also saw relatives I haven't seen in decades.

Thank you very much for sharing that with us, Bill.  Very edifying.  May God grant eternal rest to your dear aunt, and comfort to your family.

St. Philomena, thank you.  Please pray for us all.

It sounds like you have a personal intercessor in Heaven now!

My prayers are with Paula, you and the rest of your family.

God bless you all!

Thank you so much everybody. You have no idea how much your prayers mean to me.

David-- if only it's true! St Philomena is my one true love. i hope I am pleasing to her.
