A Call for Saints

If by chance it is your calling to be a kidney donor, go to my website and call the RI Hospital Kidney Transplant Center at 401-440-8562.

Happy Birthday today to my brother, Bill; my uncle Len Moreau, and my niece Jane.  I imagine Bill and Len feasting in heaven today and Jane, still tethered here, hoping to have her favorite cake.    As I reflect on their lives, I deepen my understanding that there is not just one way to be a saint.   You just need to know what is your calling in life and respond to it.  Bill as a husband, father, teacher, and healer knew his calling and lived it.   I miss being able to visit him today with a birthday card.  Len was a husband, father, speech therapist, and great talker.  I cherish the talks I had with him as a young adult.  Jane is a daughter, niece, wife, cousin, friend, mother, and grandmother—I don’t know how she answers all these calls.  But we love you, Jane!
