It is with great sadness that I ask the prayers of St. Stephen’s for the repose of the soul of Holly Holden-Eklund, who died this evening (September 8) in her home.
I went over soon afterward and prayed the Prayers at the Time of Death and anointed her.
Holly was a faithful member of St. Stephen’s and a very dear friend to many of us. Her loss is difficult one for all of us who knew and loved her.
Please keep Michael in your prayers at this time, as well as their grandchildren and their entire family.
A memorial service will be held at St. Stephen’s later next month. Her ashes will be buried in the St. Stephen’s Memorial Garden.
Almighty God, our Father in heaven, before whom live all who die in the Lord: Receive our loved one Holly into the courts of your heavenly dwelling place. Let her heart and soul now ring out in joy to you, O Lord, the living God, and the God of those who live. This we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen.
-peace,
Fr. Jamie+
