Could there be another category called a Memorial Prayer Card? I have one that is folded to have four pages. On the front it has Of your Charity pray for the repose of the soul of Thomas Joseph OKeeffe who departed this life on 8th December, 1940 aged 61 years and was interred at the Catholic Cemetery Gunnedah. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. Two other pages have prayers one headed Indulgenced Prayers, Applicable to the Holy Souls. 300 Days each time for the following: The other with a note at the bottom (Plen. Ind. for Souls in Purgatory.) The other page has a picture labelled Mater Dolorosa and a short prayer.

Holy Cards usually have a picture of a saint or Jesus or Mary on the front with a prayer on the back and have nothing to do with the death of a person but may be a memorial for a priest or nun anniversary or patron saint feast day. Memorial cards may also have a picture of Jesus, Mary or a saint, and on the back possibly a prayer and always the name, birth and death date of the deceased. Memorial pamphlets or Memorial booklets are generally more than one page, have the name, birth and death dates of the deceased, the order of the funeral service, who's taking part in the funeral service, and sometimes a little bio or prayer. Holy cards generally are used only by Catholics. Ruth A. (Sconza Testa) Nerud [EMAIL PROTECTED] Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy?
