Fr. Joseph Krupp @Joeinblack - Today, we say goodbye to a 40-year-old mother of four. Her death was a huge shock and we are all hurting right now. She was a woman of great faith, hope and love. She was a veterinarian who took care of so many broken animals and loved them back to health or gently guided them home. She sang and played organ at mass, lifting our souls to the heavens. She was a baker, a painter, a creator. Her absence is so profound that it’s a presence. I’m asking all of you to do something now: Call the people you love and tell them you love them. Tell them why you love them. If you are mad at somebody for something petty or small, decide today to cowboy up and put it aside. Talk to God. Tell him how much you love Him. Thank Him for loving you first.
