There’s nothing sad about the story because of an indulgence. And the Bible does indeed talk about Purgatory even if that word itself never shows up.

There are Protestants who acknowledge the existence of Purgatory:

As we so often see at FR, sola scriptura simply fails when it is used. Some Protetsants believe in Purgatory while others don’t but almost all would automatically claim to believe in sola scriptura.
By the way, sola scriptura never appears in scripture - not by name or even the very idea of it.
You could have written a truth here. Instead you chose to essentially post an error and - no matter how unintentional on your part - to mock the poor woman who died. We learned a lot more about you than we did about Purgatory’s supposed non-existence.

Revelation 22:18 For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
The just shall live by faith...
