From a friar pal of mine at the Franciscan Monastery in DC:
I ask that you say an extra prayer for my older brother whose boss's daughter committed suicide yesterday morning. My brother and his boss grew up together and graudated from high school together and have been close friends all these years. His boss's daughter has been very sick for many years and has attempted suicide on many occasions. This time she succeeded. Her grandparents also committed suicide so there may be something genetic in all this. At any rate, say a prayer or two for him.
Please say the Chaplet of Divine Mercy for this poor woman who commited suicide. Also for her family and friends - that they recieve the grace they need in the pain of this loss. Thank you very much.
