Praying for her soul will do no good now. The moment she died she either went to Heaven or Hell.

No, the Bible say "It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins."

That's it? Nothing in between? What if she lived a GOOD life but the last hour of her life she did something bad? Would she go to Hell because of that last hour bad deed? All the goodness she did and she ends up in Hell?
Hmmmmm, that is a Protestant point of view and you know that we Catholics believe in a purgatory where people can be purged of those sins that didn't earn them immediate HELL. NO ONE on this here good earth is so perfect that s/he goes straight to Heaven!

I'm not scolding or berating, just posing a question. Honestly!
