"We give You thanks, O Lord of all; we glorify You, Jesus Christ. You raise our bodies into life; You are the Savior of our souls!" Betty's work at Sacred Heart Bookstore was undoubtedly part of the "New Evangelization" recent popes have called for. May her memory be eternal.
Paul and Family, You are in our thoughts and prayers, may God bless and keep all of you in this difficult time. Lou Brazeal and Wendi Paschen
Jane E. purchased the Blooming Garden Basket for the family of Elizabeth A Lanfer.
Betty once told how Sacred Heart began. One of her kids came home and said, Mom, they are burning books at Saint Paul's. She drove to the school to find the janitor in fact burning History books. The janitor did not care if took some of the work off his hands and allowed Betty to fill the back of her station wagon with History books which she kept in a closet at her home. The next school year, parents kept asking for the old history books and as it became known that Betty had an entire stock of these favored books, they were still available to parents. So began her mission in life, to preserve the Truth in a hostile church. Requiescat In Pace.
As Anna said, today we celebrate your arrival in Heaven, the highest achievement in a lifetime! We celebrate you ~ you lived your faith like no one we have ever met! You showed us the blessings of family and faith, and made your home our home. ~ we are so blessed. Jane, Amy, Paul and Bill, and all the family, we mourn your loss and also feel peace that Mimi, Papa and Mary are reunited. They live in our hearts forever. Love Sue, Brian, Trevor, Andrea and family xo
