While in Ottawa I went to visit my sister in Beechwood Cemetery. After my sisit to her I wandered around the grounds taking in the peace and serenity that surrounds the area. I stopped to say a prayer from time to time for those near to me as the spirit moved me to do. I was a cool bright clear day and the scenic vistas that presented themselves were breathtaking. The trees were just starting to take on their fall attire of blazing reds and golds and yellows.
I spent about two hours there just drinking it all up. Thanksgiving week-end was all the better for the visit.
Rest Eternal grant to them O Lord and may all the souls of the faithful departed rest in Peace.
