Sad news.

It would be sad if she had lived a heathenish life, fallen away from the faith and Mother Church, or seen her earthly life cut short. A life of 97 years in the service of the Lord and a blessed death surrounded by friends from her cloister and comforted with the sacraments of the Church is nothing to sorrow about.

We should all hope for the last of our earthly life to be accompanied by such "sad news"!

RIP Sister Lucia. Et ora pro nobis!
