Honoring, Remembering,
and Commending My Mother
Thank you so much for your many prayers and messages this past week following the death of my mother, Janet Grantz, who died this past Monday. Today (Saturday, August 2) is the day of her funeral, which will take place at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church in Seaford, Delaware. I am grateful for so many people this week, including and especially the Cathedral community for your innumerable prayers and messages of support and condolences. Thank you.
Fr. Mark Hummell will preach and preside at both celebrations of the Holy Eucharist tomorrow (Sunday, August 3). I will be back in the office Tuesday, probably late morning.
Bless you all.
Brian
