Dear Friends,
Joseph John Vennari died on Tuesday, April 4, 2017 at 10:46 a.m. E.S.T.
It is not only Passion Tuesday, but the 98th anniversary of the death of
Blessed Francisco of Fatima - the first Tuesday (the day dedicated
weekly to the Holy Face) in April (the month dedicated to the Holy
Face).
John received the
traditional Sacraments and blessings of the Church several times during
the past weeks and months. On Sunday, April 2, Holy Mass was offered in
his hospital room. John was able to receive Holy Viaticum one last time,
as well as Extreme Unction and the Apostolic Blessing.
John died
wearing the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and the cord of
St. Philomena, with the St. Benedict Crucifix (with the special 'Happy
Death' indulgence attached) next to him. He died shortly after the
recitation of 15 decades of the Holy Rosary and during the recitation of
the 'Commendatory' prayers for the dying, and being blessed with Holy
Water. He died with his wife Susan and a close family friend at his
side. Immediately after his death, another Rosary was prayed for the
repose of his soul.
Please keep the repose of John's soul in your
Masses, Holy Communions, prayers and sacrifices. Funeral arrangements
will be posted shortly. May John's soul, and all the souls of the
faithful departed, through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.
Thank you and God bless you.
