Linda and I send our loving prayers and condolences from Hawai'i. Though we lived far away making in not possible to visit, the opportunity to connect by phone not too long ago was very meaningful for us. No doubt, Aunty Hilda is having a joyful time in the next world, reuniting with her mother, sister and many friends and relatives who have preceeded her into the world of Light.
With Aunty Hilda in our thoughts and in our hearts, we share this prayer from the Baha'i Writing
O my God! O Thou forgiver of sins, bestower of gifts, dispeller of afflictions!
Verily, I beseech Thee to forgive the sins of such as have abandoned the physical garment and have ascended to the spiritual world.
O my Lord! Purify them from trespasses, dispel their sorrows, and change their darkness into light. Cause them to enter the garden of happiness, cleanse them with the most pure water, and grant them to behold Thy splendors on the loftiest mount.
- from the Baha'i Writings
