It is never easy to preach and share at the funeral of a good friend and former parishioner. At the same time, it is in some ways a gift from the heart to honor someone whose life was so radiant with God’s grace and love. I had many requests for my homily and so I share it in thanksgiving to God for the joy and love, and radiant life she shared with all of us. Special thanks to Fr. Stu Shelby who graciously honored Ucola’s request for me to serve at her funeral.
We live in the shelter of each other,
