Requiescat in pace

I'm sure all of you have heard it on the radio, or read it in a newspaper or on the internet, but today, Terri Schiavo passed away. I cannot express enough my sorrow at her passing, nor my shame that as Americans we continually do not defend those who need it the most.

Eternal rest grant unto her, oh Lord,
And let perpetual light shine upon her!
May her soul and the souls of all the faithful departed
through the mercy of God rest in peace,
Amen!
