Funeral Homily by Sr. Anne Lythgoe, OP

First of all, when we heard of the passing of Sr. Carmelita [Cramer, OP] just a few days ago, we certainly were not expecting to hear the news of Sr. Rosario's passing so quickly. It is a stark reminder that we are not in charge and that God's ways are not our ways, God's time is not our time. So we gather here once again, to honor the life of our Sister and pause in gratitude for a Dominican life well lived.
