"This is a story of how Catholic faith accompanied my family through the sickness and death of my elderly parents. What could mistakenly be seen as a downward spiral was actually upward. As my parents were called home to God, those around them caught a glimpse of heaven. Ministering to them during this time was challenging, yet a blessing, not a burden... I discovered my source of strength was my Irish Catholic upbringing, the sacraments, and my God. Our family motto, 'Keep at it, Riley!' sums it up well. We don't give up; we give it to God."
