O God our Father in Heaven, Have mercy on your son, my brother Brendan. He knew he was nearing the end of his life, and he stayed faithful to you through all his years until the end. He was a devoted husband and father; a man of integrity in his personal and professional lives; a man dedicated to the practice and advancement of his Christian religion; and a man of particular devotion to your presence in the Holy Eucharist. Admit him into your heavenly kingdom, O Lord, and grant him full vision of your presence there forever. We ask this in the name of your Son Our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
