While it’s true that memorials represent a life lost on this earth, they also represent the importance of that life to the living. Tributes and memorials are a wealth of healing and support for those who have just lost a loved one.
And so, we encourage you to add the names of your deceased loved one on the Diocesan Tribute Wall and dedicate a memorial message to those who, because of the Covid-19 virus or any other illness or circumstance, have lost their lives.
On the upcoming “Our Lady of Guadalupe Torch in a Season of Remembrance” Closing Extinguishing Mass at St. Mary Cathedral in Trenton, on Dec 5th at 11am we will have a special remembrance service for the names found on this Tribute Wall Memorial.
It is our human nature to want to remember those who have gone before us to be with the Lord. It symbolizes acknowledgment and closeness and sometimes the road to healing, acceptance and peace, begins with remembrance.
