All Saints’ Day is the Christian Memorial Day, a time to remember loved ones who have died and who now are with all of the other saints, enjoying everlasting life with Christ. The custom on All Saints’ Day in church is simply to list those who died in the previous year, reading each name as a bell tolls. I invite you to use this space to honor any of those you love who have joined the saints.
I’ll go first: GENE EDWARD VEITH, my father, who died in May.
