~ Colossians 3:12
Yesterday
marked 17 years since my grandmother passed away. And as fate would have it, I had dinner last night with
one of the priests who concelebrated her funeral Mass. I had no idea that this priest, a former
colleague of mine, would be participating in my grandmother's Mass. I still remember arriving at the church entrance
all those years ago and seeing the three priests who also had concelebrated my wedding. To have the three of them accompany me again at another major life moment was
very meaningful to me. The priest with whom I
had dinner last night moved away 16 years ago and we had not seen each other
since. We had a great time catching up
and I told him how very much that kindness still meant to me.
