Was she a Catholic?

Sadly, even a committed Catholic may commit suicide if they are deep enough in the tunnel vision of suicidal despair. I worked with a fine Catholic man who died a horrible, lingering death from stomach cancer. His widow became deeply depressed, and about a year after his death she took her own life (ran the car engine in a closed garage, etc.) What a horrible, sad story. She left behind six children, the youngest of which was seven years old.

My step-father-in-law took his life at age 76 (devout Catholic man). He was one of these "strong & silent" types, a WWII flying ace with 94 successful missions over Nazi Germany. We knew he had seemed worried about his business, but there were no telltale warnings anyone could think of in retrospect, no matter how much we racked our brains for previously missed clues. Father-in-law didn't leave a note, so we'll never really know what he was thinking when committed suicide.

They used to carry her column in the Wanderer. This is so very sad.

"Was she a Catholic? "

Suicide is a no-no for ANYONE! Geesh! Do you have to bring up Catholicism at a sad time like this?

She clearly did not place her trust in Y'shua.
