Tina, I was so sorry to hear about the passing of your husband, Tony. He helped champion pro-life legislation in the Missouri House, and I have many fond memories of visiting with him in his office when he was Majority Floor Leader.
I will pray a decade of the Rosary today for his soul, for you and for your whole family.
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, throughthe mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen
We were deeply saddened by the recent news of Tony’s death. We will remember him well as a friend. Many prayers for your entire family during this time of sorrow.
Joe, Carol, Eric and Ellen Puls
