Mother Teresa once said that she couldn't do great things, only little things with great love. Mrs. Loretta lived in this manner. The love she gave to her family, friends, and community makes her ?.. our hero!!
She returned to the Father on the Feast of St. Claire of Assisi. How closely she resembles this noble woman. Like St. Claire, she was shining in life and more shining in conversation. We all felt her joy when we spoke to her. (It was contagious!!) The sparkle in her eyes and the skip in her step let you know her inner peace. And then, she would share it with us. She was pure in heart, steadfast in purpose, wise, meek, and a wonderful follower of Christ.
Paula ended her words by reading the book, The Next Place, by Warren Hanson.
