To everything there is a season, and a
time to every purpose under heaven:

A time to be born, and
a time to die;
a time to plant, and
a time to pluck up
that which is planted;

A time to kill, and
a time to heal;
a time to break down, and
a time to build up;

A time to weep, and
a time to laugh;
a time to mourn, and
a time to dance;

A time to cast away stones, and
a time to gather stones together;
a time to embrace, and
a time to refrain from embracing;

A time to get, and
a time to lose;
a time to keep, and
a time to cast away;

a time to sow;
a time to keep silence, and
a time to speak;

A time to love, and
a time to hate;
a time of war; and
a time of peace.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
(Attributed to King Solomon)
Do not stand at my grave and weep

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousands winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there. I did not die.
-Mary Elizabeth Frye (1905-2004) 1932
Creating a memorial dedicating to your loved one
on an individual memorial page is easy.

  • For a virtual memorial in this area - please send a picture, and an obituary item,
    eulogy, poem, or a memorial write-up, etc. That's all.
  • The page shall be created, and,
  • A votive candle will be lighted in the Lady Chapel sanctuary.
  • If you wish, you may also request a Memorial or Requiem Mass to be said for
    your loved one.

This is a free service (ministry): donations to defray such expenses as candles,
sanctuary & altar supplies, and website maintenance are gratefully received.

Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis.
In the words of Chief Seattle, all of us are connected, and it is important for the living to
remember those who have gone before – to maintain that connection in a wholesome,
healing way.

The Remembrance Place
We never lose a loved one,
For even though they're gone.
Within the hearts of those who care,
Their memory lives on."

When you lose a loved one, one way to mark their passing in the most lasting and personal
manner is through a virtual memorial.  This area has been created to allow you to erect
online Memorials to members of your family, friends, or other people whose ongoing
memory is important to you.

It can be just special words for someone who has passed away, or may include
photographs, poems etc.

Or perhaps there is something personal you want to leave behind yourself once you've
made your own transition. Whatever you provide here will live on in cyberspace, keeping
the memory alive and the connection whole.

Memorials and mementoes help to create or crystallize meaningful memories of a loved one
who has died.
Staying connected: Online Virtual Memorials
Gone, but not forgotten
"To preserve, to give continued existence to; to pass on, cause to
continue to be believed, known and remembered."
