Death of a little girl

Well, some of you may remember that Osaka and I went on a missions trip to the Dominican Republic this past July. While we were there, I met this beautiful little girl named Francessa, who quickly grabbed my heart and was almost immediately my favorite of all the kids. This is a picture of her:

Well, today she died of a heart attack. She was only four, so all I can imagine was that it was some kind of a heart defect that she's probably had from birth. But it breaks my heart, she was so little and she had a brother and two sisters who always watched out for her and loved her and must be devestated. Please pray for the family, epecially the siblings. Thanks.

As the Requiem mass has it, and I pray alongside,

Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.
You are praised, God, in Zion,
and homage will be paid to You in Jerusalem.
Hear my prayer,
to You all flesh will come.
Grant them eternal rest, Lord,
and let perpetual light shine on them.

That's terrible news. I'll be praying for you and for her loved ones. Praise God that He doesn't make such little ones accountable, and that she's resting in His arms now.
