Funeral

Today we buried a Sister who was dedicated to the poor. She worked with the Hispanic people and loved to be around them. She spoke Spanish fluently. She came from a big family of eleven children. They grew up in rural South Dakota. It was a big funeral and as one would expect. If you really want a big funeral you need to die young, come from a big family, and have done some sort of unique work. Sister met those requirements. The theme of the funeral was "The Cry of the Poor" and "The Beatitudes". What a wonderful tribute. God bless you as you journey to heaven.
