I regularly attend St Catherine of Sweden Church and, so, have probably often seen Louise and Natale there without knowing it.
I offer prayers for Louise’s well-being and for the soul of Natale to be in His Presence and at the Heavnely Table of the Lord.
God bless you Uncle Tom. May you rest in peace. My deepest sympathies to Aunt Louise , Lorrraine, Natalie and all members of the family.
Aunt Louise, Natalie and Lorraine, so sorry for your loss, you are in our prayers. Heaven had the produce brothers together again.
