Black Wax Post

In colonial days, if a letter arrived sealed with black wax, news of a death was within.

Mom passed this afternoon during the Hour of Divine Mercy.

I am more at peace than I thought I would be.

The funeral will be at my BIL's funeral home (Owen) in Louisville, KY, on Saturday. I will be present for visitation on Friday.

Blessings,
Gemma

The Black Wax Post

In Colonial times, wax was used to seal letters. Any color could be used, and black was reserved for death notices.

Mom passed this afternoon during the Hour of Mercy (3 to 4 pm). I am at peace with it.

The visitation and funeral will be this Friday and Saturday at my BIL's funeral home (Owen). I will be present for the Friday Visitation.

Blessings,
Gemma
