"A dear soul and a friend to many"

O Lord Thou gavest her to
Us to be our joy and consolation.
Thou hast taken her away
From us; we give her back to
Thee without a murmur,
Though our hearts are wrung
With sorrow.

-St. Ephrem

All I ask of you is that you will
Remember me at the altar of the Lord.

-St. Augustine
