[Sundaycommunity] Lucia

[Mary Lou Jorgensen-Bacher]

Thank YOU to HELENA BURNS for her embrace of LUCIA!!  I have tried, but have failed to send her and her "GOOD NESS" an embrace.  (In a 'PREVIOUS' e-mail.)
I hold you in my arms. You have had a way of life that is incomparable, measured and also full of the HOLY SPIRIT.  God loves you for it, and it will still be with all of us as we are preparing for our LIVES on this here earth.
THANK YOU,
Mary Lou Jorgensen-Bacher
Keeper of the Flame

Before Covid, she brought wonderful baked goods from the Harbord bakery (my favourite) to Mass on Sundays. She loved her cat beyond measure. She was a mother figure to David, in Toronto, the son of her dear Brazilian friend, Luna, who lives in Israel.
