Just a story I want to share My dad passed away 3 weeks ago unexpected They had just made the trip to their winter home in Mission Texas. I flew down. He died on a Friday morning. I am a catholic and don't go as often as I should and believe I can pray at home. My mom doesn't miss. I have been to the church she chooses in the winter down in Texas. We went to mass that Saturday evening. My dad did not want any funeral. So this was the weekend before Halloween . His mass was terrific. Mind you he takes in stray dogs and loves them dearly. They walk around during mass. He tells stories about them and life. He follows the traditional mass but brings so much into it. It's how I think it should be. If he was here I don't think I would miss a mass. He plays country music it was absolutely awesome. And to me the mass to say goodbye dad in church ( dad believed but never attended a church) Anyways I wanted to share this song that he played that day I guess I can not but it was.

What a sweet story about your dad and his mass. Thank you for sharing. I know how much you must miss him. |
Your Fathers Mass sounds wonderful!!! You are blessed to have memories of him, the Mass will just add to the good memories. I also am Catholic and after a few years of looking for a the right church in Georgia I found a small parish that is just minutes from my house. I truly believe that when you find the right church that fits your style of worship it helps. It sounds like your Parents Winter church was that kind of place. Good thoughts for you and your Mother and happy memories of your Father. |
I am so, so sorry for you and your family on the unexpected loss of your father - my heart bleeds for you :( The mass sounds amazing, and I think that's totally how it should have been. How wonderful. I wish you and yours strength.... sending hugs and prayers from over the pond. Sally x |
