[Magdalen] small prayer...

[Marion Thompson]

Big prayers headed your way.  May the waters indeed part or at least 
drain away enough so that your mom's memorial service can proceed 
smoothly.  Such a day is already emotionally loaded enough without the 
stress of the flooding situation.

Hugs, too!
Marion, a pilgrim
