Our Faithful Father, it is so hard for your little children who are still growing up and having to face not only the adversity this quickened world has presented but in losing a parent Lord ... be with this child of yours. Place a serenity within her heart that she feels her Great Father's warm embrace, that you cover her and her family with a blanket of security. Be with them in their mourning, please provide them with loving and caring friends who will support them - who will give them the space to talk, to be consoled, to cry and to rejoice in good memories. Amen.
