We buried little Georgie yesterday. We had to wait so long because the dear priest who was helping us bury him in a Catholic cemetery was away on vacation for three weeks and just returned. We were unable to bury him with our firstborn son, Will, so Fr. stepped in and helped us to find a place to lay our baby to rest. God is good!
St. Georgie, pray for us. We love you and will be asking for your heavenly intercession!
What a beautiful memorial cross to mark Goergie's resting place. Continuing to offer prayers for your family.

Jennifer,
What a somber day it was for you yesterday. I am sorry for your loss and the empty feelings that remain there after. I know that God is gifting you with great grace and your heart is being held and protected by those strong boys in heaven, our father and mother. There is joy in knowing that they love you and lift you up.
Thinking of you today

What a beautiful tribute to your little Georgie. My thoughts and prayers are with you. My sister had this printed on a prayer card for her little Elizabeth:
"My ways are not the ways of man. Each person I create fills a place in my Kingdom that could not be filled by another. He was created for My joy and his parent's merits. He has never felt hunger or pain. I breathed a soul into a seed, made it grow and called it forth."
Mother M. Angelica
It brought us comfort, I pray the same for you and your family.

I'm sorry to read about your loss Jennifer. I'm also sorry that I'm late in offering my condolences.
I'll pray for you in a special way today.
