Oh no! My kids are reading some of her books for school this year.

Gentlest Heart of Jesus,
ever present in the Blessed Sacrament, ever consumed with burning love for the poor captives souls in Purgatory,
have mercy on the soul of Thy servant, Michael;
bring him from the shadows of exile to Thy bright home in Heaven,
where we trust Thou and Thy Blessed Mother have woven for her a crown of unfading bliss. Amen.

Our Lady of Lourds, pray for him.

Of course, the family has my heartfelt sympathies.

I, too, confess to not knowing who Amy Wellborn is. Is she a freeper?

Perhaps the poster can provide some information. Thanks.

My condolences to Ms. Wellborn but I confess I do not know who she is.

Catholic author and blog 'mistress' extraordinaire! She developed the 'Prove It!' series of books - apologetics for youth. She has also written

and

for young children. And a wealth of books for the 'big' kids like us.
